Almond
touch sketch
of
shade
on wood
you work with
your
hands
to stay alive
green leaves in the window
bed in Paris shadow
stucco
and cologne
night
dye me blue candle
blue
almond etching
lost souls
in madness
we
brave
the
wind
and
hug the earth
mimosa tree
in
the window
it
began
back in the night
out
of the rain
dragon
fan lamp
sleep in silk and sea
empty
span
tea
smoke
moon
and candle cross
waves
wax
the
light on the wine crate
sleep of green
far
away
my
shawl
on the chair
turning star
bird print
in
wind
wax
falls
dim
haunt
moon
in
the window
winter called
and
lay down
on you
- Jade
coal
streaks
to my
heart raw
dark
coral
souls
burn and fly
in the
fire
ninth life
with the gold dust run away
stark
eyes of
one
who
loved you
i feel
your breathe
in the
western wind
of dusk
you
loved me
porch lantern
the hill dog barks
through sun
and stars and moons
that blow and blend
- jade
on
Salmon
glass
sea
kisses
melt
and whisper
sun
ash
sands
the junks
of
rice wood and shells
dark at night
hibiscus
water
grains in far east skies
rose tea rinse
wispy pale
songs
of leaves and willows
in loves embers
this is where I come from
mouths that touch
-
jade
visitation
soft man
you
drag your bones
as
your heart
your
thin voice
swells
as the moon
in halls of men who
will not be men
through
men
who
call time a fool
I stand in love
slow and close with
the dark
and
the stars
who stalk markers
for
a vision
in the stone
I walk along these lights
Of my dark tower
And seal its name
In my soul
the glitter the night gave
my skin
the
taunts to glass eyed men
tea
lamp glow
broken
faces of sculpture
i
laid down to sleep
don't
hug the man i live with
don't
fit the hip
of
the man i live with
scalloped cheekbone dog
i walked in the wind
he
plays ivory bells
to
the moon in my bed
i
could only love
the
moon
that taunts
-
jade
they roar and flap
the streets,
in
webbed wind
the moon melts
in the rain
one
horn moans
across
the ocean for
tunes
the wind and shadows
dreaming
bending
the
last note
tunes
the dancer
and fallen heart
goes away moaning
in the rain
tiny
taps
quiet slick street blues
