with ev'ry candle lit
& dream left undisturbed
i have been there
in the rosy pale light of unwashed scenery
there i found silver on my wrists
& a crown upon my hair
and there i found you
melting together with the waves
of a china white beach
what thin silk warms me now?
my every motion is fluid
& i saw you still
your face above the misty sea
rose petals scattered from their hosts
and lined your mouth
but the wind blows inland
so i follow into the verdant beyond
where the lilies and fern lie
waiting for my delicate feet
to kiss them with my descent
