THE WINDOW BRIGHT LIKE SKY


Look! and I saw through the window bright like sky
black lace reveries washed down by the autumn rains
the river's hair is green and flowing free across the hills and through 
the valley
down to its mother sea where pastel wings skate like dragonflies above 
the grey-green sunlit sea
where white horses run in splashing lace through the window bright like sky

Look! and I saw through the window bright like sky where Lilac lay her 
head on the window pane
wrapped in her coloured counterpane, a window to many skies all within 
the spaces of her room, 
the place where all places exist
in her many-mirrored dreams
the chocolate steams 
feathering the view 
casting rainbows on her lashes,
a dusky night scented stock to brew invented memories
the crystal dew on Ophelia's flowers clasped in her fingers combing the 
black lace stream, 
the dark vein of the emerald hills 
that washes down 
to the clear salt sea, 
astringent and fresh, that bleaches everything clean, 
that strips all thought to bare white driftwood bones, 
an empty shell 
cast aside 
waiting for the champagne waves to lift it up and fill it and 
pull it back into themselves
...to flow underneath the tides, dragged down into stillness and light you 
could drink, 
sweet from the surface of the silver sea 
in the utter east
opening
like a window 
bright like sky
