MONDSCHEIN/MOONLIGHT - For L



It’s easy — watching

languid candle flame

warm the milk-wan

body,

midnight hair cascading,

framing

the face that’s haunted

your dreams —

to tell yourself

God has led you here,

His metaphors and signs

garlanding a poppy chain of

            destiny — that



the

dark eyes searching

your own, so close they

            merge,

will always regard you thus —

that morning will never come,

its cares, its quotidian glare —

and lovers

carved

one from the other

never have to

            part.
