decades three times gone by with tides descent
silvers sliver
mark liquid light upon her skin so white
the warriors sword cuts gold the blues deep sleep
a memory weeping
nocturnals curse a fragile stain
at choirs of gulls positioning
Shakespeare’s lover listening
I love you her breath glistening
there it is he said , there it is .
her body multiplied
mirrors of eternity that wouldn’t die
began that summer in the Falklands burning
the footlocker laying still , laying long
medals looking from the wall
the soldier and his conquest quickening
pictures of her there inside unfolding in their christening
anywhere with you , anywhere with you
I love you her breath glistening
there it is he said , there it is .
