And to Have Felt Age Creep Over the Naked Body


An underground amazement blazes
Mildly out from me indifferent sparks
Shoot moderately far enough away
For me to shine a light on for me to cast 
A rather ominous even frightened glow 
At the darkest and dirtiest perfumes
You wear O when you come around
See how I run amok and fling my arms 
Wide and wild a gale-tossed but giddy
Little sacrificial god! Who shall we amaze 
Tonight with pyrotechnic atmospherics?
We are coarse exiles of our scorched
Fragrances O we who say we see the earth
Assert itself entangled in so many silly stars
