Eyes Wide Shut



The color of love
clad in the cloak of cult
cuts my hearts in infinite lust
my eyes wide shut
as open as the sun!
She comes swimming in the Dark
encirciling me with ruptures of love
October wind shed leaves silvern,sweet
Trickles of music fly in the Dusk
She tiptoes to my Hearts
Wearing the skirts of nakedness kissed to
her prayers-preached-hearts!
Love I touched you once
I know all of your locks,combinations,colors,
codes,crimes,cuts
You draw back
When I pull you toward my Heart(soul-boat)
Alaknanda, I still see you passing like a
dream streaming down across the bare breasts
of midnight srteam
