Alexandra

Alexandra’s perfume quells my heart

The union of an unlit heart

My thoughts uneven by the way

The memory of another day

 

Apple-bloom, shining-appled

Honey-blossom, rainbow-dappled

Red-russet is the sea

Bees scramble with glee

 

Beauty’s realm covets night

Star-lashed silver-spilt night

Golden-breath soil-tipped

A heart so ripped

 

Fired by dune

Rotted by swoon

My Love’s beauty is fire-strung

Apple-scoops, ruby hoops dune-sung

 

Moon drapes an arch beauty

Emerald pools shimmer duty

Your sweetness is a dewy drape

Your sweet poison is the grape

 

Splitting sun sears my mind

Her harsh words…not too unkind

The memory of another day

When I was young, when I was gay
