bird of fire

 
 
 
 
mystical dawn ritual  
 
 

[tangerine strands, swollen & tingle  
vulnberable in wriggly invigorations, the  
overnightly simmered & smoked woodiness  
embers tempered to molten ambered brews  
 
afloat in insatiable drunkenness  
this hymning sanctuary pleads  
an amnestying estuary  
down your Pacific mystery]  
 



flows high in sacred hues  
dyed saffron citrussy cues
