800Q

Lost

What is this pounding and lapping of black water

Against the stone steps of the fondamente,

These silver drops of rain , if not paragraphs and syllables

Describing the light falling to the earth?

What are these red and blue reflections

In the sea -throe, licking at and swallowing the stars,

If they are not a lover’s lips and tongue

Circling the mooring post of our souls

And lifting the bridges of our bodies closer

To the mirror of the moon ? We are nothing

If not the shadows and shades of a meaning lost

To the mortal sentences of our being.
