FROM "THE KOUROBYON"
1.
Labiate buds
in nameless dedication
embrace these thoughts
whose basis you are.
Therefore i pluck these verses
upon an urheen.
2.
Perihelion!
Aphelion!
Apogee!
Perigee!
Abacus! Circle ionic.
You are my outer earth.
3.
The Acropolis becomes
Shoreless against a cloud burst sky.
The inevitable belongs
not to us.
Your shattered trust
speaks to my life's action.
4.
Gleed gleamer!
Tenuifolious;
Umbriferously by my side;
Unanimous as a sycamore.
Girasoles effloresce to your robisch bequest.
5.
Divine efflugence, linger.
Consider not
the Coming,
going;
meeting to Parting;
grey and gold blazons.
