Patterns of agreement, <br />Gold. Amber. Ivory. Ink. <br />Performance. Accommodating. <br />The darkest truth in umber, <br />Then brilliant turquoise, <br />Stale white. The chameleon, <br />A social animal, pleasant. <br />Lost beneath the burgundy of <br />Opinions, polite politicians, <br />Smiling egos. Highness. <br />The smiling chameleon, <br />The sister of peace. Among the glittering <br />Pleasantry of natural jewels <br />Decked about her speakers <br />She lounges on their art, smiling, <br />Invisible, invincible. Imitating <br />The shifting opals of their conversation. <br />Imitating a reflection of their respect.<br /><br />Masiela Lusha<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/chameleon-4/
