Her desire chiselled upon him:
Sandpiper-coloured streaks
Across snow-clad clouds;
Dancing and bouncing along
A sandy street: grained beached
Treats of goldfish, pale blue
Piercing eyes, and tannoy laughter.
Her dreams like maternal mallets,
Likes knives through butter-
cups and butter-
flies and beeswax
Sweethearts: irresistible,
(Incongruous)
Escapee,
Free, free, free!
โ Until pinioned.
Her thoughts, like bell-blue streaks
On four starless walls of solitude;
No shadows fall where
Shadows form โ
Breathe-only
Spaces.
