The Trace of Night
I want to fall in love with you...
Rip-roaring mad, free!
like scarlet silk ruffles through soft
and wild winds across orange-soaked
faces of yellow daffodils-
breath soaked, stained
in words unspoken, caught
captured through colored glass
fractured-
shattered shards of reddened drenched
heart forgotten
Lost-
fall aimlessly, unfounded
in the blank and blinding stratosphere.
A challenge to the very impulse of my faith
- YOU -
a manifestation,
resurrected in flesh and blood!
In. Whole. Heart.
Your heart-
rests on the center of lips,
ripe and puckered bloom
on the tips of a resounding,
yes-
Yes! I want to fall madly in love with you,
I do! I want to spill into your skin
as twilight falls into stars and just slip away
from this world wildly bright and collapse-
Collapse,
Cracked open
Into the dreams of day - -
- - But of night
you are a phantom, an apparition
a blurry emission of pastel haze;
purple, pink and blue persona
the illusion,
to which my ache is never quenched
yet, your call haunts me-
The Trace of Night
lies thick on your name, hung
by the necks of a thousand soulless tongues
as winter,
drifts by...
and by…
and by...
Oh, cast your seed across bachelor button fields
spread wide the hunting ground-
Conjure the calla lilies and call upon me!
Call forth a sonata of blue-masked birds
only my bones can receive,
unbounded by the blazon, blueberry sky-
Let the planet ring!
Hear it, rave and ripple underneath the whale's song
as earth, quakes and trembles, begging stones
to rise in soil so that life, climbs back
into the very pulse of my blood!
My full body entreaty, trails
the scent of my desire on your flesh,
It Burns - -
- - My eyes
can only draw upon the breath of your gaze
so that my fire, the blaze inside you-
knows that I-
-Am with you too.
