Faces to wear
"The walking pavement leans on shade,
with galloping horses making out thirst,
what decays from its chest is the eyesight,
while slumber twinkling with alien skies,

arise my heart you are in love,
be with creeping lurking shadows

as are the nude arboreal twigs in shame,
that parted beloved has made me same!

the hell swings rope with the absence,
as earlobes of every stony-heart blush,
with blood and sleep i keep your memories,
my veins are intoxicating much less than arteries,

a trace of faith leaps; sweeps over dust,
a cold lamp is keeping count of centuries,
i've been cutting through visions and reveries

O ye who love, how do you bear!
when skipping heart has faces to wear"
