Song from the Grey Zones (Night Bird)
_____________________________________
Mockingly rotating
my bedsit's a satellite around my eyes
thoughtlessly gyrating
the colonnade of beer cans displaying no surprise.
The night bird flies, at 2 a.m.
The scuffed silence strives to condemn
my specious soul for being this,
being this
me.
Cosily hissing
the gas fire's legato lectures my morale.
Someone's missing -
A reconvened conference on the banal.
At the far end of the sofa, the empty space
relentlessly unfurls the visions of your face
grinning and speaking my secret,
my secret
name.
Relief-evading
my psyche swabs at its harlequin's mask.
As you are fading
I cannot muzzle my unforseen task.
The grey zones are corroding the lonely, free bird.
I need you to beam me a message, some word
to ensure the dreams we make
we make
real.

Love, so surprise?
------------------
When in the wind is the where?
With the you-eyes, the blue-eyes,
And with the so wind in your hair
So golden, so random surprise?
Whither your lips so red
Which meet mine in when and in where?
What words your lips so said
So lost in the random wind there?
When the you and the wind in the heather
With me, lips, words of us love?
Is nature random so together
The us and the so clouds above?
Is love in your eyes You so fair?
Above us the random cloud wise?
Whither the random when and the where?
My nature - love you - so surprise?
