weepingsongs






.



Quailsong flower of streets
Magpiesong flower of forests

Wolfsong flower of waters

Lovesong flower of night

Deathsong flower of spots


Drunkentears fruit of dawn
Embracingtears fruit of eyes
Welcometears fruit of hands
Mytears fruit of my lips
Myweeping fruit of time.

–Robert Desnos
