halloween poem

behold me, in my chiffon, gauze and tinsel
when the hours of day are numbered
we lay
fat black bucks in a wine-barrel room
the air is like a butterfly
often is it not so?
to come so soon to this imagined dark
a pen of steel
soft as the bed in the earth
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
listen to the sounding sea
