Day’s jest begun- rushed fester – in their cruel waves, the wierdo parade-
Laughing, but who cares?
I just want to start a fire
The fields chief flower
Shakespeare said aloud
I plucked you from the crowd, I thought
I laugh at myself, all in good jest
But on my bed reading Prometheus Bound
Holding Venus’ hand
It’s all spinning round, your web,
Driving god’s mad, around inside my reading head
Then structure, I wonder aloud, how I found you in flame
Our Fathers, and their lessons
I couldn’t care about them
You in your uniform, goddess burning
And in visions of you, the world an apparition, I see you there
In form
Burst to flame
And you written, not to fade
But to stay perfect, like that, remain
Not a single word,
On the sands of time, to kiss
