Gideon I Tukuna Poet Imagism

Night Scar

NIGHT SCAR

Before thee have I bow
With a loyal heart in thy castle of love

Lower thy shoulder that I may lay behold 
Curve in, thy palm around my waist 

Teach thy subject how to plant emotions 
In a desert where genuine vegetated love was lost

I beseech thee oh my goddess
Queen de mon mot (Queen of my world)

I thirst for thy presence day by day
That I may taste weariness no more

Thou art my reflection 
For mirror-ly have I seen my love in thy pupil

Brightly, brightly as the moon increases
Such is thy love above the sky of mine heart 

When I close my eyes in the nights 
All I hear are silent voices from a far 

Did whispers to my sleepy ear
Anonymous! anonymous!! anonymous!!! Queen 
Thou art my muse.

                                              HAPPY NEW YEAR
