Bohemian Noon

Morning walks towards the bohemian noon.
Before that, she went for a walk 
in Romna, a moonlit grove.
Like an adolescent flower-girl, 
Morning commencd dancing in the air of dawn
Money flies by the touch of the sweet smell 
of lady-flowers
                                 on bosom
                                              on buttocks.

Sweat doesn’t shed in the income of porters.
Now the central AC is on in twice harvesting office.
Wearing suit and tie, all the Satans are sitting there 
with greedy eyes.
A herd of black beasts do guard the coffin of Morning.
The blazing noon makes coalition 
with the thin dark night.
Yet the Night gradually walks 
                towards the debris of the shore
                             like the call girls of a bar.
