poem || Jeff Harrison

 
To Some Somnambulists 
 
draped
"Crystal concubine"
for posthumous parvenues
 
serves
Delirious Avenues
of lunar lusts
 
observe
"Nocturnal cyclops"
the eye-white sky-light
 
prepare
the flight
browse on Necropolis
 
Lethe
Odious oasis
of Eros obsolete
 
lead
Stellectric signs
from hallucinatory citadels
 
crusaders
and ornithologists
of shattered glass
 
lit
Onyx-eyed Odalisques
and ashes whirl
