believe

the infamous golden backwalls
whisper murder in the third
dublin, auckland, havana
places, faces, dreams
catalog sign on destiny
like a splashing mass
in an ocean depth
assigned to listening
to second best
deviled combinations
like 8,12, 16
compose the finest notes
until curtains call
and the ripe has sung
every chord under
a blistering sun
that last aria of
spring
calls a mocking witness
to believe
excelsis in deo
