Intepretation..

Silhouette of a
   lone leaping antelope
across the moon
   between the banks
of pine trees

In an empyrean
   realm twixt liquid
reflections of a glowing
   orb and silver
dusted skies

Neither a night's dream
Nor a thought stream,   
But a fantasy ridden scape
I stand before and stare into   
as we speak

Fate wills, I live a different world
of plastic smiles and spastic reality   
outside my penance,
away from your eyes   
Something..I seldom wish.. to seek.

Something..I seldom wish.. to seek.

pardon my duh-ness, I'm still trying to make sense of the first two stanzas... :D....hey you know what If I read 1 and 3 and then 2 and 4 it kinda brings a new perspective to it.

Very nice. Especially,
"Fate wills, I live a different world
of plastic smiles and spastic reality
outside my penance,
away from your eyes
Something..I seldom wish.. to seek."

Yeah, who would seek to stay away from their beloved's eyes! :)

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this, though silence is the best manner I would choose to honour this poem. Very well written. I liked the following line the most:

Fate wills, I live a different world
of plastic smiles and spastic reality

Fate wills,
we undergo a penance
Away from their eyes
and our own

Oftentimes i tell myself
that sins are not what we commit
But committted by aliens on the prowl
and we punish for it,unnecessarily,
our own pristine soul...
