Wide open eyes closed

 

The fox knocks as all foxes do

while your homegate lies deserted

the trunk is an eye of bare cabbage stalks

am I the seed you sowed and died

all the sick deserted foxes 

         are golden jackals at our car door

wide open eyes closed

under the dream gate of your inner land.

 

You left your panties on the railing for me

your dazzling panties  so white

with a bright red lipstick kiss inside.

 

We go down through the narrow alley

where the floors haunt us

the cabbage flower seed

sees the morning dawn

out there in the shadows

behind the deserted gates 

         everything still lies in wait

wide open eyes closed

under the dream gate of your inner land.

 

You left your panties on the railing for me

your dazzling panties  so white

with a bright red lipstick kiss inside.

 

Wide open eyes closed

under the dream gate of your inner land.
