«One night as I lay in my bed"sings

The Chinese chatter is chipping away

The whitelit clouds assemble

A small angel of God displays this:

Shiningblack beetlewings polished is he

Deepsheened tortoiseshell Majesty

Almost as furclad in his peackock feathers he

Burnished dark rosewood embodied with motherpearl

Some of the armout of the Rainbow Messiah

Brightfire of mornign lightbearing fallen

Falsifier telescope viewed topsy-turvy

Motherliquor life’s flicker

Soullicker he comes and he goes

There where he wants in the Shinig of your mind

Greenscaled flybacked carapace she

Dark stars imploding and shuddering she

In the menstrual night she

She opens and — she closes she

In her the flowers are all one she

Stamen lip and hovering she

Beauty alone and unmirrored she

Blackhaired and blackeyed door she

Hart so lovely dewed labial she

Pearldrop and dewdrop

Soft pillow of seaspray

And dark smokevoice of evening

Wallbuilt and pinnacled gorgon is he

Snakelike and sulphrous serpentine emperor

Brasslimbed and trumpeting dischordance he

Bonevoices and bonethroated sepulchral decadence

Crackedsun boneset anklet of jadegreen

Sugarcane pomegranate bloodeyed and seawide

Larkthroated birdwinging cloudstormy golden

Lucifer Lucifera Luciferens

Stoneheart and coldskin and icerendered member

Grapecluster darkthruster coalblackened smithy

Not saviour nor Silence nor Anything at all

Goldplated illusion and fool’s gold in heaven

Goodbye

I say goodbye…

Lucifer has two faces: male and female. Lucifer’s beautiful eyes are two dark

depths. In one is the seadeep profundity. You may stare into this bluedark body

for ever. On his surface, the waves come and go. The other. Clouds breathe

across her. She is the night. They both lie
