Several stories are written in water
in the wind
Intricate ornate
Turquoise or lavender
ruby or emerald

Those with the wind, are provoking
some in the starry skies sing
some uttered under breath
Some hollow ringing
occult, intimate

The moon clings on to some
replete with mysteries
lust betrayal
Some rising in revolt
some in ashes

The moon clings on to the song
of hymen
that overarch the skies
and topples God
in a robe of thorns
Thorns of Orchid and mulberry love
