You rock me wildly
 To the black rhythms of juju music from the radio;
 Drinking horn in hand.
 Not too drunk to tread
 The course of blue, warmth
 And moaning shadows behind batiste curtain.

Free-falling in the fire, 
In the fire of desire
Of your coal soul
As darkness takes its toll

I float …
in the ether -
a roll of sea swells below,
