influential repute (ay, son)
and in these still hours
of the night
i rediscover your name.
/
\
like fog hugging mountains,
like the quiescence of a butterfly,
like diving bells
and cavern lakes
and gentle rain,
your silver linings,
your voice of reason,
your gold-studded,
diamond-plated,
most brilliant,
precious name.
*
and i pull apart
in smiling slivers, reform
and reconfigure,
resurrect, reaffirm
the secret in my bones,
a fortune in my guts,
an odyssey,
a midsummer
night dream -
my ode to Everything.
*
and tonight i speak to gods
in tongues and
ask for a sandman's
symposium with the queen,
for a dream within a dream,
lost within her, in perpetuity,
every subtle and stormy glance,
forever found within the faint
glimmer of diamonds buried -
immortalized, our love.
of the night
i rediscover your name.
