blind fable
Fast, you take me
through slow falling
Autumn. hear, i hum
to your low sweetened
sound. Despite, day's light
I am blind. A lemon-ginger
girl who trembles to your
touch, annoint me. Blind,
yet still i am able, read
heiroglyphic, your tongue
it spells a false alphabet
a fable unknown. i won't
speak it. not i. it is to be
our happiness. at last
i have found you. Rest
now. I offer up all
that i have.
