orgami's Diaryland Diary

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

falling into midnght

winters minstrel music will blow
through summer tarnished limbs
and bow

the howl of the wire
come tight winter gales
and snowflakes thick
and robust
gusting past the window
while the radiator clicks
while the clock face
changes its red numerals
when I shift to escape
a dream
awaken
and gladly fall asleep
into another dimension
another seaon

i have no grave
no funeral plan
but I love Venus
still atop her
flight of onyx stairs

i can see her
glowing when i shut
my eyes
Perseides
Ursa Major and Draco
Mars

and Moon pallid as an
ivory rose
in a black garden
gleaming diamonds
in the soot

nights maiden
