your immensely spread parasol:
it is your downpour consoling
these tumultuous iterations.
the mordant edge of your
susurrations:
it is your word painting my silence.
i have watched your slow fires
raze the inundation.
you have done it well
without trouble
without peril.
i have witnessed your
somnambular sun
mutilate with its precise dagger,
the stubborn bud of
contained splendor.
you have done it well
without blunder
without complication.
i have seen the conception
of your darknesses
and i took them as my own;
its sovereign over my
fragilities,
its tyranny over my
small territories,
its amplitude over the
softness of my voice.
i have done it well.
even with dire postulations.
even if i am
cast into a lulled out perdition.
it is like
there exists between us,
a tryst,
and the lions there lay,
roaring.
