The Day of the Indomitable One


I sing off-key my eyes open to every breeze ah!
I no longer have one shred of what was very
Likely never there something you gave me no less
Charming something that needs an affectionate
Body lotion an oil maybe an anticipation no more
The blow hard enough to kick that snow off your
Shoulder O friend I could make a donkey snore
There be myself on the mossy spur of a thought
There be I against which mist breaks like a distaff
There be me offering the smallest premonitions
The nonexistent son never mind the nightingales
So what if you see visions where my forehead
Swallows light a sudden alarm dark windy days
Ideas wrought in the frothing curls of your hair
