Why do you stay?
I stay for morning
breaking over the waters
like the surprise of love
in her eyes
For what do you arrive?
The woman at the bar
with long black hair
and ancient eyes
dancing drums shadow beasts
and prayers to the fleeing ones
Of what do you dream?
I dream of whispered
forgotten kisses
under buffalo robes
and almond moon-skin
under rough hands
Why do you hope?
Because of giggles behind the couch
like fireflies
and the surprise of icy water
down deep in a summer pond
