a witches familiar
this fiery rabbit hops to a spell
with a gewgaw in his paw
a witches doer
this forayed hopper dances well
with a song or two or more
a witches seer
this furry bunny on the bell
with a bouncing at the door
a witches worker
this funny imp in a grassy dell
with naughtiness in store

The Emperor
hath donned a gewgaw crown,
bedazzled are the throng.
He rides an electric horse.
Strides through the pitiless cities
of lost or last hopes.
His faceless glance
not even a mask,
but a cold premonition
an iron mind
behind bolt-shut eyes.
The crowds back away,
bow and know
they are now subjects,
not even slaves,
only subjects
to be used and disposed of
at the ballot box.

I sit upon a moment’s tree
with a gewgaw in my hand
and pluck its reed rhythmically
to ride the distant land
the journ to drift her league to me
upon my tongue, her tongue
caressing sound relentlessly
harmonious lips in song
and while my harp does steer me so
to galaxies afar
many a darkness had me go
traverse the lonesome star
yet all the time a moment’s tree
side on with roots asway
an afternoon belonged to me
that gewgaw had my day
