O distant region, foreign shore how you glimmer like the citrine and the topaz: you bid the twilight farewell to come alive in the night like a volcano of gems a cluster of yellow gods: O stellar of stars i, the poet, seek your margins your narrow mouth and coastal arms: the hidden histories folded inside the hemmed petticoat of your skirt that embraces the sea the coral nights and me. take bread away from me, if you wish, take air away. but do not take from me your laughter. ~neruda~ [This message has been edited by Dark Angel (07-09-2005 09:50 PM).] |
