around the fondling of noisy quiet
my eyes are greasy ease slithering
just a wanton glance dancecapade

searching the pockets of afternoons
for but a bird crumb of scent
a coffee drop on cocoa's plastic

pin's pricking tattoo'd in sand
or something smaller even still
not as easy to find for my mind

in symbolease disguise of laughter
showing that you have been returned
from the gypsy wagon's trickery

oh fair needle of the silver trees
