Alex Izenberg - Sea of Wine

My deathless love has adorned

Machinery which I obfuscate

Gentle rain wept beneath

Queens of antiquities

Pull the strings of my first jesture

As the winds orchestra softly side



Besieged by the voice

Through the circling weather

My heart remembered names

Of the dark lit ridge



Solitude persues

Your sordid olive branch

The diamonds that you shelter

Rarely shine



I wore anachronistic love

For the declaration from above

Iconoclastic cities rust

The suede dancers demystified

The sensuousness of the sea of wine

As romanticists recoil the dream



Upon all auburn lashes

You knew my pleasures

The colors flew before me

On an angels back



Our nights surrounded words

Of my willful letters

Spanish Harlem called me

We sang their love song



She collected the lights

From her shadows shadow

Descending from the silence that

Received my hand



With a desperate despair

The stars rose swiftly but

Stillness overwhelmed me

As I tried to climb
