Polished
Brass Joyousness
wait with me here until the rain
stops.
i think but do not say lichen faces
melt
into real ones. they wont look at us,
they allow us first turn to speak.
the sky played games with us.
from dark to light it went, as morning ought.
they allow us first turn to speak.
the sky played games with us.
from dark to light it went, as morning ought.
there was even a vague horizon; a
longhorn
dismounted fog. moments later even
the
charcoalest of grays were
undistinguished
again from the utter dark
you persist driving in.
my song you protected
between your teeth like a sheath, held,
under the ID in your wallet, like saints relic.
what the soil offers as reason is kept too,
you persist driving in.
my song you protected
between your teeth like a sheath, held,
under the ID in your wallet, like saints relic.
what the soil offers as reason is kept too,
only the cold colorless sky
recognizes
my tune travels the nethers of me
my tune travels the nethers of me
drinking in the earth,
sweet taste my joyousness
would fit into a plot with the beets
and winter cabbages.
would fit into a plot with the beets
and winter cabbages.
new green growth i will name after
you
and what my roots whisper about this i cannot
and what my roots whisper about this i cannot
hear, it is that bass. stars so low
tonight, yet back
brightly at me like the polished
brass winged
instrument eyes you have always
laughed at me with,
before this burnished horizon where
churns now
the poplar tulip before me, butter
on mashed,
in the headlights, ripped off is its
broad shoulder.
whats left hangs patient as a crag enmeshed
in the ridge your knuckles make on my sloping
plains like at the bottom of Texas, where they pull
to the wrong side to let a stranger
pass,
were he in a hurry.
