A Poet’s Love Affair With The World

By Lewis Conn

  

I, who would lasso the sunset,

steal into the forbidden

city of your eyes,

offer my poor breath

into the kingdom of the wind. 

 

I, who would strip my self down

to these bones of light,

shivering on the stones

of forgetfulness, to be baptized

by the flame of the dove’s

wing.

 

I, who adore you,

you whom I have never seen,

and yet the stars in my blood

are calling out to you

even now, to fuse these tears

into a crown.
