Union
in the deep back fields of
twilight fortune, she walks
briskly through the poppies,
blind to the daisies that wave
and wave, longing to be strung
around her nomadic neck

violet reflections paint her eyes
in storms that came and left
and those black whispers, those
little blame-flame dances that
swirl endlessly around pure ears

rust wild hair twists in flame tangles
lava coils yearn union with daisy chains
