Shivering Flowers Heedless fingers weave around the sword And a spattered night time star Vermilion steps, ricochet off antenna warriors With plates of armor in their hands, drooling pincers Begging for generic words…something immortal? Iron masks look through a print design Incorporating fickle hearts of men Tigers eat the weak, while nature’s softer appearance Plays a single flute…providing golden wings In the first dreams of lovers and the concentrating poet Elixir is saving the fox from hunters Search for me in that moonlit haze I am that Fox gripping The unexpected heaving forms of Unwanted ambiguity of amplified doors Panting like breath short Violated dreams sailing nomadic Or’rwaves, composed of six full moons Where fall slips into outer shells, and flowers shiver Churning awareness, cold-blue Running with end sounds, that grasp my hand Trying to shake loose this mesmerizing chokehold It behooves me That where I shall go….tomorrow To the autumn rice fields Where a draw bridge gathers cicada shells |
