Dark in water
shadows shiver
in shattered silver
delivering a line
of light of shadow
milk-white water
Infinite
quivering in time
with water breathing
heaving heavy
in flanks
to the gently biting
heavy horse
snoring softly
awake! of course
a Norse god
to the cryptic bride
white under sheets
clean and neat
a plain pearl
milk-white in light
warm milk heats
to the touch spilled in the street
near small clean
pretty feet
alive aloud
in the crowd
blowing kisses
at streetlights
through open windows
she is wowed
in the night
by the night
muscles under clothes
thin taut lithe
heedless blithe
to the cutting knife
of water
she is wife
she is life...
A white snake hisses
in the shadow
of the meadow
where she cannot go
kisses with tongue
the meted meat
of a mussel
outside water
blue-black
in blue night
shadows shiver
in slivered silver
delivering
in bloodessels
translucent in light
the clean well-lit room
outside heaven
an empty vessel
of soft pink water
Perfection
and a single beam
of light
from a single seam
of light
a secret light...
a flashlight
am I in
the hidden church?
