As Night Dies “speak now, or nevermore” tell me again you love me, drawl the vowels, redlit ‘neath the tongue’s clay pit, receding, the secret thresholds sprawl their tremors over the haunch, descending into my spine, you hold all the currents of a river, at bay, in pangs, as I lay on absence, a lullaby, under the tides of a white, frozen moon, closing the wounds a quiver in the inner equilibrium, rippling, the brute bulk of jaws, as you cradle a keep in the taupe arms of July, I, all in butterscotch swatches of soil,longing for the fruit of all this giving, all in glass, amber rasps against a lit emptiness, and in the house blooms, a hoaxer’s garden of votive bouquets and bridegrooms, taken for granted in this scant slant of light, as I wait as I wait, as I wait, in the swan arch of doorways, dovewhite, the bow-legged certainty of the body, burgeons, its battered ecstasy, an agony you heal with solely a kiss, the clock slows, so far from midnight, this longing dovetails through the sandglass in tantrums, racked all in black a-gain, as night dies on my lips. 2005 copyright babygirLPress **Intoxicant to the SouL** |

of the body, burgeons, its battered ecstasy, an agony you heal with solely a kiss, the clock slows, so far from midnight, this you collapse me with these lines... amazing how healing one kiss slowed in time and held in midnight can bring such bliss... I love the way you write. ![]() I really want to care, |
