Woman In My Dream

Stay and dance for awhile
in my head as I play the unheard
music you dance to upon your heel
looking like the woman in red

a far memory, woman in my dream
who eludes me each night
I kiss her lips of cream
She… fades amid the dark light

then calls out from the deep,
it’s written in stars _ upon your heart
encryption only read in my sleep
all you desire to say to me in Egyptian art.
