To Catherine Deneuve
I gave my heart to someone in the rain,
the clouds exploding, witness to my vows
The water carrying away each fervent wish
—to stream in happy aqueducts of love

I Drown
silent kisses
escalating warmth
petals of roses
volcanic eruptions
in the outer stratosphere
spatulate fingers intoxicated
searching in the aqueducts
dark moist soil waiting
your luminous eyes
entangled in new
rain dark pools
i drown in bliss

Stupidly I yell at them:
to revive, to live, to thrive!
Nothing.
The buggers have also gone deaf....

as if the air were a cistern
but the sky is a dry bed today
sprinkled water has no effect
i expect to see stringy stems
swell into firm aqueducts
but the newly doused droop the more
as if water were a flame
in a beached throat...
