blather
thunder_comes
daf Sate my fire
with your noble way
drink
the coffee and lingering
lift
the tons that aren't
moving
like a tongue of lead
child of autumn
speak
and as the shaman said
thunder flickers
until midnight
then the All inspired
taste of Eden coming
tends to sate my fire

Lift the sacred lover's cup
sip until you've had enough
leave not in the early light
for wasted, barren
night-scapes
where lepers bite
cackle with delight
will you lift your arms
in jeweled
mystic flight?
thunder comes again
from the Endless Name
autumn child you speak
like the desert rain
into thirsty mouths
when you cry aloud
"Honor never died"
and it sates my fire
It sates my fire
precious autumn child..
