Monday Night
Give me a silk worm
and some mulberries
and the three ways of being
I'll send you one tomorrow
in a beggar’s wooden bowl
one coin carving its initials
now or never was the time
like the dama in the square
taking off all their clothes
tonight danced naked
with fire and ashes and wine
and someone called the police
who came as quickly as this poem
I'm loving this night series - they're entrancing - I just want them to keep rolling on, night after night :)
