Three Liners
1
by the river Seine
a girl of sixteen summers
opened her blue eyes
2
the tulip opened
to speak out love but the bee
carried the last dew
3
a wrinkle in time
puckered the curtain of her
certain diffidence
4
the distant thunder
to wake the quick and the dead
smashed in the window
5
the sun cascaded
over the back of egret
to give birth to dawn
6
nimble fingers curl
plaits of creepers wedded in
moonlit slumber dew
7
mittens of rabbits
galloped in yellow forest
gamboling skippers
8
succubus laid eggs
hatched clone in gray and blue suits
on some other world
