Autumn:
sun's cold rays
stolen flowers from other days
as long forgotten kissses
on my face. . . .

roses burst in bloom
flood the air with rich perfume
muted passion burns
drifting promises
colored bubbles on stale air
do you remember?
shrivelled rose petals . . .

ripples on water
spread arpeggios in streams
hands practice ballet
water ripples streams
cadenzas stream in ripples
ripples stream the air
raindrops . . .

clouded yellow
Luna moth whirls against the evening sky,
fluttering shadow of pale moonlight
echo of thought and flicker of breath,
voiceless a spirit that is dancing toward death. . . .

Scarlatti Sonatas
simply irresistible
finger-teasing trills
completely bewitch
me helpless to your magic
-al fingers weaving
Scarlatti Sonatas
deeply intoxicating
magical love . . .

shimmering danselfly dance
chopin fantasy
King Frog of my heart
with clever, nimble fingers

What justification is there for my life?
being no man's woman and no man's wife?
I have no place to call my home,
not even an office or a telephone.
Who am I to have the right
to sleep . . .

roses and wine
and wine and roses
sweet the scent
that comes with thorns
pleasure and laughter
accompanied with pain
we wish for the days
of innocence again . . .

I am the other, the second wife
green-eyed, I did not lie,
slither or writhe
into his life:
the exuviating snake,
lying in wait
for some juicy, helpless morsel take
with flickering tongue
and long hissing . . .

I dreamt your eyes were blue as iris
that compete with Venice skies
so I stole the regal flowers
from the garden of the palace
to place them on your Steinway
in exchange for a Moszkowski polonaise. . . .

Be ye fruitful and multiply
as many as gold dandeliions beneath the turquoise summer sky.
And still I hear no baby cry.
Years course me by.
The seed of dandelion upon the earth
parachutes to inseminate . . .

in every season
fruits ripen
