Through the Glitter Tides of Night-

The violet of twilight fallsin gauze ribbons over the girl and her lover-

White stones in her fingers-she holds his dark heart

He carries her through the night and its glitter tides-through the leering trees and ghouls-presses into her lipsthe nightingales song

In the shadows, in her white gown-The moon glimmer cakes her hair-a sugar petal and a dark flame-

drawing kisses from her pink mouthdrinking in the warm darkness Like a cordial of dawn
