“FLUENT LOVE
Time dark obscure
Faded into love’s magic
As we lay out separate hearts,
Tragic,
Eyes bled the souls’
Hidden secrets as we fled
To the goals
Of fluent love.
Our hearts melting
Ran down to our loins,
A swollen molten mass united
No joins
We merged so fluid
And raised our single voice in thanks
To the druid
Of fluent love.
We smoked our single
Cigarette singing,
Our single song
Ringing
To the sad sun, so certain
Of winter’s morning cold
Behind the curtain
Of fluent love.”
