THE PASSING RIVER

By Darren Lynch



Unfurled by the smooth concrete dawn ….

 

Skin of tethered squares

 

Petals of horse gripped cloaks

Highways of desert passion

 

A split tongue kisses the draped shoulder of fame ,

How the curled locks worship desire

 

Shelter of dwelling , For home now

In bold carnations ,

                               Sleep in winter gardens.

All powers are rested , equal

Whispered wings by the curious law

Onto exist ,

A chrome rule

The cords

Spoken essence

 

For the ripples of spring theatre

Are cast in union

By a smile of the unconscious performer.
