Where shall I go with Act IV

Shall He brush the moon
gathering in, bathing in
aetherial dust
a twinkle in the eye, a sparkle in the soul...

a dust dust of lethargic lust?

or moonbeams
in all color
the reflected light
in magic white

as it appears from Earth

eyes, what shall she paint them?
what color
what hue
love in green

or shades of blue

Shall she set him with wings of a dove
or place him with Angels
in heaven above

perhaps more earthy
more real
less dreamy
more...

aetherial

yes yes
she must

with wings
and magic dust
a voice of peace
subtle sensuality

less fire,
that did burn up...
Aires' desire

calm, melodic
peace
suffice
to dream...

in her charms
her serenity
tranquility
in the least.

We manage more
given wings to spread
lift above
and fly

one man?
this man?
perhaps
but then there are others...

but "Proc",
Pray-tell,
Why?

the story
will there be more...
thus we shall begin
shall we open the curtain...

Act IV?

It seems I am reading these in the wrong order, but oh wow, wow, WOW!
