i.
without words,
boy, caught up in the dark,
brown-eyed boy,
as night drifts,
dark in her clouds.
ii.
a tumbling
star,
leaden feet
sink to earth,
drowning stream...
poured from a water jug
a dark, crackling sky.
iii.
night's thick opiates
glaze,
unmissable sky
sinks anchor-like.
iv.
slumber-heavy,
dreams carried to the stars,
lost time
stretching like a cat.
v.
boy, sleep sound tonight,
brown-eyed boy,
as night drifts
dark in her clouds.
