Many anecdotes divulge a secret
Hark and fathom every message
Phrases of subtle implications
Twisting colorful storylines
Vessel carrying mind-images
Words are empty, thoughts real
Many influencers touch a life
Connections of varied kinds
Relatives, friends or strangers
Morphing flexible forms
Receptacle holding attachments
Relations are empty, bonds real
Many lifeforms undergo a union
Fusing same or opposite gender
Degrees of intimate sensations
Ranging from rapture to torture
Containers fulfilling desire
Copulations are empty, passions real
Many voyagers reach the goal
Countless ambitions fulfilled
Conquest of mammoth obstacles
Presenting unique experiences
Wrappers containing life-stories
Characters are empty, journeys real
A LEAF IN THE WIND
