Lake Adeyoha

O Auriferous Oroborus tail

Ends the same wayward

June hightails A lone July lay

Awake for his return-ingle-light-swan call to midnight's Dew-grass-moon, O

Fallow Why couldn't they just sew this time

I know he'll go, and the story will have

Her stay behind. yet

Bound they vow that every year on nights like these

From May to Fall they'll meet and chaw the love that neither Could leave

Yearly, I too take that pilgrimage

Through your every page

We like cypress knees who singly breach, yet beneath Weave to one

Mirror their tale: one lingers, one has sunk beyond

Shadow, ShadowI can still see you on the lawn

Or low in the lake your reflection begs me follow down

And time will winnow what we could not hold

Will I ever feel a present tense

I sway on like hanging moss

On the hint of a Thrice Great Tool can this circle square

Though the magic

Of my foundrry's song is strong

All my alembics putrefy the wine

Away

Am I

Pygmalion or

Am I the

Totem

  

Round her he'd orbit

She spun a'polis charmed chrysopoeic

By renown's sound statue vow

I, Third Prime protract

The greyouts

I Dreamt You Lived a'Last One-half Past-one Utterly Sung

Solve et coagula

Eram quod es, eris quod sum

  

He'd come-pass her square and clock a ruckus in her town.

But her roots would cleve her Samara necklace safe and Sound.

Time will winnow what we do not hold

Each 21st came and went

In a life made between their nature, and their Love

Her years encyst they found her gypsy boy obscene

And Akhlys would split the whole world like a labrys

And time will winnow and we cannot hold

Their Love through cracks on city streets

The dandelion's go to seed

O I would to stay right where they meet...

And, Shadow I can still in hear you in my sleep

Lost in between the cruel collapse of dreams

Did Atropos even know you had a name

Or when she'd cut the line that it would leave half my tale Untold
