"where night is...romeo at a window"
i.
black rock, gold
leaf edging a page.
ii.
night drowses its
engines dark alleys
and empty cans.
iii.
the night sinks back
like a technicolor
cartoon, blue-green,
it rolls like a film, it
sings of old love
in its fiery steels.
iv.
today i am juliet
waiting for romeo
i wait forever for
one kiss while the
sky calls out
love to the dreaming
cloud.
v.
romeo, oh, romeo,
and the night's
ghostly petals
unwind their
sweetness in the
tree-lined lanes
of the moon.
