Nothing like Mary

In the circle of another face
she listens to the squeal of a mouth
left jammed in hinged horizon
three autumns ago

her eyes lift up and she finds her mood
hanging there behind the moon

loose

her body opens and shuts
like a whore bending on time
and she is nothing like Mary who has
suffered the wickedness of the sun

but a gutless conception
baptised by fish and the drag
of Pacific under her feet.

how do you continously write like this
my dear friend? Just when I think I've
obviously seen your best talent, you
blow me away yet again! This was
remarkable and as always will leave me
with much to ponder...Take care and hugs.
