Eyes dripping blue What loaded words! Tears forming pools in which Hard-handed men examine their own Namelessness. Their place in this world Is drowning amid the waters Of a well-wrung soul. That name, that identifier Will never capture her. Eyes, lipid pools of starlight Mixed with the blue grey of a dolphin’s back Swimming in the storm of her irises Those flowers that bloom In the milky white of tainted purity which hold a black hole in their round chests Swallowing soul and spirit indistinguishable

Completely Anonymous (for Wallace Stevens)
Eyes dripping blue What loaded words! Tears forming pools in which Hard-handed men examine their own Namelessness. Their place in this world Is drowning amid the waters Of a well-wrung soul. That name, that identifier Will never capture her. Eyes, lipid pools of starlight Mixed with the blue grey of a dolphin’s back Swimming in the storm of her irises Those flowers that bloom In the milky white of tainted purity which hold a black hole in their round chests Swallowing soul and spirit indistinguishable
