Poems - Letters In Faded Ink

Letters In Faded Ink

by Lee Richard Kirsten

Do you have love for the prey eerie palace, where the Birds of
Paradise flock around the nomadic pasture, in the chamber
massive and continuous.

Do you tourist the rooms and doorways, obscure places and
nod with satisfaction.

If not go deeper.

See moustaches and grins as you are swept up in a dance,
surrounded by a crowd of naked young girls.

Festival climax or ancient religion?

And you convert, increasing your complications, lessened by the
circle of dancers and dragon-like embers, adding to the joyous
chaos.

And with fondness to wine, ancestors and graveyards, the goat
ritual tribes a population to furniture at your celebration hooves.

And you are infidel and cousin, neighbour and outlaw, beckoned
and offered baskets of berries, nuts and dried fruit in the harvest
of the glowing spirit.

And as a slave, block-by-block you entertain the gods, playing
a harsh journey, building up structure and evidence of your
creative capture.

And it is all sunlight and turquoise, corn and stone as galaxies
import plumage to help you fly further, into dark fields of
ingenious darker destinies.
