clouds slip over our
clay spotted hands, clotted hours
flick flames to flower.
___________________________
and chattering wind
unbothers him; toils to bone
and sunbathes within.
__________________________
and I welcome sleep
at last. opposite, a wife
carries the horror of war.
__________________________
the room is a sphere
it stretches for miles, turning
as a hallway is.
___________________________
the company of words.
an enterprise of souls.
a perfect loneliness.
___________________________
the long fought for shore:
the blessed last trip, dawn's torn heart
— our aquatic bond.
__________________________
the shell of our cleave
rescinds our dreams, the rapture
ruptures dawn to breathe.
___________________________
bourn indelible
the orphans of emerald isle
scorch wind; birds still sing.
