Glasses are broken
                               and the night is seen     
                   in corollas of eyes
                                 and the milk
                                               is drunk
                         out of these flowers


              you talk like pebbles
                                 and  my voice ripples
                      on your skin of water
                 and the light that streams
                                      out of the earth
                        with ductile fingers
                        splatters
                                  your hair
                        with slivers of day


               through these seams
                                            the sun
                     piercing the blind
                                                 unseals
                                 your eyes                 
                   scattering
                         splinters of green


You've drunk the night and spilled the seeds of daylight
