Kill the familiar
Bring down thy pale voice
Upon my open hand
For will thou not trust in self

Through time
as pure as air we fly
secret rememberings covered in skin
who are we?

Listen between the flowers
where oceans ripple and blaze
You
beautiful in night's feline perfume
smile
and wave


The insistency of the rain
speaks more eloquently
of the unknown
than do
these drops of language

In myself lies hunger
blazing
ripe and hot
it whispers of oneness


evenings drenched in exploding rhythms
cover me with the
slow flower of your embrace
beautiful I remember
and drink
of thy fire
look
like an angel
one kiss lingers eternally blue
and I
like the ocean
die on your broken shore
