Of Your History & Beauty
history & beauty
speak in the volume
of your silence, your calmness
history & beauty
speak in the volume
of your sadness, your stillness;
it is this longing
to behold my princess
’tis this striving
to claim a niger goddess
that makes excellent
your mystery & sign of history
that makes eloquent
your native & inborn story.
