those were

every ‘parole’s a prisoner in this road

half-hacked knights where your word was

ringing over teemed up rumpus rooms

brokered by silver fish and dawn its each window

which costs the death of your lace

not your hand-held curtains beckoning my call

its that my call? a trumpet making merry dawn

busked by stage dusked by day or death’s mighty pal

a tumbrel wrecking your gracious dawning

misdemeanours of what you’ve seen

rare as your body was in this golden air

over sanctuary and miles of well placed rapid

going messenger

its nearly spring here in dark night

when young like petals you prayed to a whoopee god

Priapus and his many metals

tangled by briars and necklaces of your body

legendary as any cape

you imagined distance is a candle which kills

it does it does it do do do as soft black

wears napped covers veiling her feet

come as my lover burnoused as any tribe

wearing the trinket of her sigh

better than any imaging

its yours if you calll
