for K.

by jhon baker

I have loved

now I love

 

I shall lie betwixt her breasts

in the mood merriment of playful jazz

lust or longing, a wandering

a melancholy jest.

 

the star of Venus of Heaven

the tragedy of Euridice

we dance the dance of Polyhumnia

and write the words of Callopie.

 

we are like children

under cover of moon’s somber reflections

memories vouchsafed lying

on night’s dewy grasses.

 

– Hoc Scripsi
