11-

Engraved upon my heart
The love before the dawn
The night long whispered kiss
Ever seeking softer lips.

Lifeless as a cup
Held in solid hand
Given to a fool
Upon the solid ground.

The king he is a seer
He whispers in the dark
He calculates the risks
He tears them all apart.

The woman is a queen
She sits across the waves
She holds a vaulted cube
She wears a violet gaze.

The sexes are at war
Each drawing out the day
They stop to make some peace
Then give it all away.

To you I go tonight
To offer up my breast
In giving I will stand
In loving I will rest.

The language we have sewn
Into this tapestry
Will haunt us as we moan
On thrones of luxury.
