Analysis of "Jessica" a poem in free verse



Hello,
so mellow is my sin,
aback,
inquisitive to be in.
Sit in shadow to float awry.
Sweet eyes in a daze,
in a daze,
Amadeus,
Amadeus.
Squeeze my eyes to share,
alright I shared in excess.
Hear in my heart,
leave me to impress,
eyes to kiss,
upon my lips.
I was right.
I was right.
In a daze,
in her eyes,
in the flutter zoom,
overreact to presume.
The caviar,
of her name,
eyes that charade,
in a flame...
