the sea sang out
to the crazy stars,
dust beneath her feet,
flowers in her hair,
ivy pinned to a
black cave,
where the waves swept
past with their
engines of steel,
the clouds threw
their heads
back,
pretty swing
boats of
the whitest paint,
pressed against a
surreal sky, above the
dust and the flowers,
the ghosts of the
moon.
