wind-blown fallen leaves
paint the ground in red and orange
last flare of sunlight
last flare of sunlight -
across the street, a porch lamp's
gift of small comfort
gift of small comfort
wrapped in homespun and larkspur
arriving too late
arriving too late,
I only saw the pale smoke
mourning the bright flame
mourning the bright flame,
proscribed to a weak state of
intoxication
intoxication,
he said as he gathered her
dangerously close
dangerously close
but not piercingly reckless
the body of doom
dangerously close
to something you have long sought -
no time to waver
no time to waver
no cover of darkness bides
the deed will hold fast
the deed will hold fast
if the heart remains courageous -
our fears undo us
Our fears undo us
hold fast to what makes us tick
to heck with the world
to heck with the world
after all, it doesn't give
a gripe about us
a gripe about us -
we kiss in public places -
love excludes no one
love excludes no one
it displaces memory
and creates the world
and creates the world
through this and this and this, and
thus is all made one
thus is all made one
the horizon, dawn's glimmer,
the skimming comet
the skimming comet
blaze and trail of your fingers
on my skin's wide sky
on my skin's wide sky
you trace clouds and stars and moons
and I float away
and I float away
lost in the depth of your touch
like rain on a lake
like rain on a lake
sweetly the soft music plays
somewhere far away
Somewhere far away
sunlight wakes the night sleepers
blinking out streetlights
blinking out streetlights,
the night sleeps, morning covers,
drowsy crescent moon
drowsy crescent moon
drowns in the dark womb of night
paving way for Eid.
paving way for Eid,
Id exchanged for lack of will,
dream-bedraggled nest
dream-bedgraggled nest
high up in the tree of life
grog running through veins
Grog running through veins
just one serving more my dear
the night is bitter
the night is bitter
rain, snow and slush choke my soul
I need warmth, my dear!
I need warmth, my dear!
let us light up a fire
while we watch the stars
while we watch the stars
let the moon bird kiss your lips
and rend heart of fire!
And rend heart of fire
in houses made for snow dunes
beware the North wind
Beware the North wind
sweeping over Southern plains -
memories of ice.
memories of ice
send a chill up the spine;
the statue trembles....
the statue trembles
with a stirring breath of life
marble turned to flesh
marble turned to flesh
flesh turned pink with hue of love
adorned with kisses
Adorned with kisses
caressed within your strong arms
dancing through the night
dancing through the night
day entered the discotheque
of the brightened sky
of the brightened sky
we know that it hides its face
and it watches us
and it watches us
and leads us to the way of
higher-ups in luck!
