Erebos- Erebosneon
sign flashing
“Vacancy, Vacancy”
Old friend take me in.
Extend long aperture at dawn and
I will sit on a plastic adirondack chair,
in line with the other creatures.
Relic in replica against stucco wall I
will tattoo your name:
Erebos- Erebosand
enswathe every dimension of my
body un-swathed by you.
I will live!
Ereboswith
all my fellow creatures,
Erebos-
Who knock upon your door
and call the umbra home.
Digesting butterfly skeletons
under the tree
light shining trough amber
Circe appears at the pale shear
closed eyes calm
Retina
they whisper
and Circe shines
carefully she breeds her mutants
one sip each
In my stead see where
my pursuits go
if by
the word of a lord
I have not answers to give,
directions
I walk with you to make a way
Laying with God what more noble path
I am at a distance when
I decide myself
as I
Not the tree or the bird
the world discloses
in me they are
wrest yourself the pains of flesh
let it anguish
it is
but a beginning
