14 tom-toms - iii

oh water-moon
your salted-relation with the married-deer
and the river-proneness of the blunt-headed nail
become known to the ducks
that are born of the same mother

that antelope with branched horns circumference
crosses the known run-way
to register the warmth of a submarine
in the orange humidity

the demi-god birth of the milk-bird
or the patriotism of the cigar

or the restless gun-powder
of the bay of eye-brows

all those are the signs of trust
of that night-personality

when the long uttering comes to an end
the quick-sand of the narrow-gauge
returns back to sit beside the window
of his palace of words

and towards his flight
has stooped the white-papers

of all the girls of this
tinsel town
