Perhaps Galileo was seduced By vespered diamonds flung Above the vermillion gloaming One mesmerist, musing, strung To tempt terrestrial chains… Delirious with rumors of stars Nightswept in sylphlike dances I wade into the endless moon Where sibyls cast their glances rocking unborn in her sea fingers of night peel film after film of pale corporeal scarf stripped to tremored soul nudely gold I glisten and curve to her obsidian folds loosed in the gauze of her seduction and milky tendriled galaxies weep stark froth against night skin of sky thighed ebon beauty and she permits the comets to lick their blue lapped flames trailing dust across her heavens making restless vapors of men’s celestial dreams I sip her dark mystery evoking notes I never knew the glide of spectral strings in the sway of twilight mirrors riding her aural ecstasies to ancient omsong thrum I suckle divine truths from the hem of onyx lip tossing the curtain of her hair and gathered labyrinths of astral lace she leans me back on silken gravity until she kisses morning shoulders dappling carnal with sugared dew and the sighs of parted horizon pour their slow syrup to melt me on tongues of coral dawn H |
