­
The weak sun tracks,
Above the close horizon;
In a limp mood-passing,
Above mascara lashes
Of lady-oaks, of lady ashes;

Blowing winds
Make vamp-eyes blink-
Seductive-
But winter sun
Keeps right on passing.

So the female spirits
In the trees,
Grade him dysfunctional!
*
He notices, but knows,
The times not proper,
To rub his tempered rays
Against their tender parts;

...Knows that they
Will have to wait his touch
When he returns for longer stay-
April-May, when sure is this,
That he will sate the thirst,
Thats told exists-in songs
That drift from far below;

But not this day!

When cold is wax
That blocks his ears, from siren pleads
That rise from batting lashes-eyes;

Of Goddesses, disguised as trees.

You did it again!

and no, not a dirty old man, but certainly one who has acquired a palette.

Women know who love them--and goddesses favor those who do.

Beautiful!

between the bare branches
the goddess winks
and plays a short season
but waits not for anyone.

Oh, yes....

serenity said it...

and we danced it all, among the lash,
limb, and leaf...

yes, we danced...

among the sighted...
