wildly beautiful improbable message:
I have hidden you under the
underside of my heart
in case of real emergencies
where no one will question
your sanity in battle
or you be ever wounded,
shot-down in mid conversation
by those with nothing better to do
long years I have cherished you
under a sky of iris
or rocked you to sleep
when the moon turned to blood.
the waves of your shining will
not be turned back at any border
nor your high ardent meteors
cross-examined
in courts of sheer aridity
and we will survive:
staring straight into
your radiance,
never going blind
