Poets never look like their poems.
This one ends with you wearing a tunic
as blue as a cornflower clasped
by a golden brooch, and your fearless glare,
and the sword, the bloody sword.

No Poem Is the Only Poem. No Story Is the Only Story. No Kings.
Poets never look like their poems.
This one ends with you wearing a tunic
as blue as a cornflower clasped
by a golden brooch, and your fearless glare,
and the sword, the bloody sword.
