A Face


Amidst hundred faces he saw a face 
the beauty struck his pie
the way red clouds in the dusk would captivate 
force so magnificent 
like a tide in a deep blue sea
with a barbed edge of a crescent moon
it sliced his crux ,sumless 

A face in veneer 
made a fine delicacy
masked and concealing 
swaying away the hay 
dazzled by an eyeful 
and deceived by the beaut  
that face in hundred faces 
brought dismay

the sailor lost him in mist
dropped a bundle he
abandoning already mislaid ship 
for this frivolous deplete
still hanging on to his hat
looking for that face 
...... in hundred faces.
