 Inamorato Takes a Walk


 A dark bird

gainsays the storm's

hammer,

our zinced love 

is warm;

the fish magnify summer.


Your body to mine, 

the magpie flies.


*


The sky is rubbed by fire,

we observe 

the blood dancer's gyr

and saunter along dream roads of rock rose and ursine cloud song.


I pluck a dream 

from the midnight tree.


*


The wind's opera is a lunar saponification,

the crooner's horse has a moonlight saddle.

Sprites 

sing in white,

sashay across 

scarified skin, I remember jinns bowing to Allah on celestial hills.
