Amaranthene

Ultimate you alight
Eternal foreigner in sleep of night
Where lillies lay open
Silent and white

All cardinal points a caliber
Through meadows bright and far
There we prowled on hands and knees
Neath watchful vibrant morning stars

Amaranthene

Amaranthene

Offhand, romantic, a brilliant yellow fire you lit
In a threadbare house, sans walls
On a floor of windowpanes
We slow-dance on cracking glass
We sang funeral hymns for yesterdays
Passing flowers mouth-to-mouth
