the little dots,
the little dots,
the clever tasks
of hit-me-nots,
the flavor chase
of over-cradle tones,
the rounded bore,
the tasted lore,
the keenest sweet
of evenscore,
the purgey smile
of freshly-rattled bones,
will leave us here,
with blanketsmear,
the slowest breath
of hold-me-dear,
though room reverbed
with slender, ghosted moans.
the little dots
of eyelid knots
will crest and lumber
sandy cots,
we roll the night
like sunny,
bleaching,
stones.
