Bespoke the Name Unknown

Surf the clutch of drifting hair, 
The breeze of perfume caught the aspect, 
Her face poised to kiss the world 
And lip-synch my sullen ego. 
This and that and everything 
Bespoke the name unknown.

Claws the benediction near 
With Venus lines in every respect 
To blend my palmistry into clones 
And bless my longing eyes. 
This and that and everything 
Bespoke the name unknown.

Divulge the guarded secret wish 
That dared to dream and in reflect 
Did drive my tentative advance 
And blow my dust away. 
This and that and everything 
Bespoke the name unknown.

Brush the arc of dipping moon, 
The night bird cry of freeborn reflex, 
Of moral fibre in the instinct 
And hold her beauty tight. 
This and that and everything 
Bespoke the name unknown.
