Azimuth
I watch as twilight
creeps over the Brothers,
stars re-birth
beckoning over
mountains
a shimmering black mantel
conceals Azimuth,
her seductive ebony lips
slide,
over the lamp
A visage of ivory
looks upon earth, drifting
shadow to shadow
passing as a will-o-wisp
of ebony vistas,
always out of reach
still,
the Horizon
mesmerizes me,
ebony lips and a mantel
of seduction,
rolls with reverence effaced,
Azimuth’s arms await,
shaded in Grey, I stand east
as the Brothers release her folds
I am ever watchful
reaching for her hold
