rider and his princess
rider and his princess
you spoke of windswept tapestry
garlands of caribbean blue
uncurling stairs of ivory
and china roses too
you told me of aquarius
you harked the siren sing
you proffered virgin feathers
that sprung from pegasus'
wing
you waltzed beyond the abyss
caressed a phoenix tail
spun the marbled clasp of
silk
and heard the cypress wail
you crossed the tides of
sable
and bedazzling spells of
sand
delved in teal-kissed labyrinths
phantasms unknown to man
but i have slept in chambers
bedecked in verdant hue
eclipsing melancholy
in my wish to sail with
you
