A Bronze Statue of my Twin Sister

Post by billectric » December 30th, 2004, 12:25 pm

A bronze statue of my twin sister

has toppled into the Rhodes harbour.

Seagulls grin and screech,

fathoms farther.

The Golem rests, having dusted
Cobwebs nest-eggs lusted

Clay man gentle put the kitten in the house,
Thin Colossus frame and whisper female breath

Across the pier.

Tugboat sound.
