I could not shift the shadow Or form sugar from your halos Channeled table-taps from ghost gods Prowled and slept in steep ships
Mixed Mythology with pathology Tossed a coin and hymned the groves Then did you scent the wind drop And count the codes of seeds?
And did you call the night ,,bright” And drink the sex of stars Or might you cartoon Judas And cast in flower room
Your breath flickered next to my breath Humming noise and rhyming sweet song That your mouth had heaped up like rivers And buried deeper in your hearts
Unzipped Eons and cradled antlers Opened your face and gave your grave Opened true Moon opened thousand Nights and paths under mountain flames
Spelled the gardens as the cock crowed And spoke slowly as the laughter rose In dragonflies and pussy willows Dreamt your lips like Kings and Queens
So open up your mouth And in your invisible church Under sun whilst cats purr Gorgeous dreams under dark nights And tender rhymes under Swallow Flight And lovely bird songs sing
What is the cost of sand in Anarch What is the cost of blood as mist? What is the cost of the child in your heart? With his castleface Who is the coat ‘’Teller Wore? And tell me your great name In torrents of birds Kiss me your real name And wait for the sun to bring you open And bare your naked church In to my mouth
