I saw wild-poppies in your eyes Your tongue was a coarse dead petal Your crown slanted, As if it did not belong on your mess Of hair. Within you are the souls of one thousand Shades: ghosts, wights, spirits Shades: hues, tones, colours Within you They play seance With your ribs Lighting buttercups from your blood Gods take your crown Poppies in sight of the holy ones... **** you, **** you, I will not have my own tongue die.
