WHITE AS STARLIGHT
First published in ?
I stare into the night
take the moon as a given
listen to the dark
white-noise
white-elephant
white-feather
a marker in the eyes
brimful of dead tears
lost battles, old braveries
I relive fragmented dreams
try to find my way
along red-carpeted corridors
red-letter
red-light
red-herring
toss and turn, lose the plot
look out onto a garden
of roses, white as starlight
