THOUGHTS ON SONG

by A.J. Kaufmann

You thought that vapor
turns towards song
in the end
a pulling dance of man to boy
moonlight land of heart
thought that world could slip
as we performed
another number
peeling our ears

Laughter lays on abandoned
years, progress inexistent
those who knew a wonder
better than song
had flowers ship steered
from it, blows and fear
towards their
fingers falling
life sights blowing a trumpet
after midnight

Headlong into love
flashing with tears
bright brings song of stillness
ocean-wards and rosy
still swelling nights
keep slapping the treasure
no-one feels united
in a monstrous all-seeing eye
no one feels rewarded
dying in sterile sorrows
