Erato Poem by Chris Zachariou

Erato



Lonely child

painting the meadow green
hands reaching for the moon
writing words to love songs

Only child

dreaming of a lover
dancing with his ghost at midnight—
summon your eight siblings
to teach a man the art of rhyme

Beautiful child

the sweet sin of wanting you
the sweetest sin of loving you
won't you let me stay with you tonight
