Necklace Song: to a former lover


























Necklace Song  to a former lover

you sing about deepness and air
porous wood living without man's shame

crannied in a woman's body
you claim the forest as your own

but find new frets
new  tones
if I'm to hear your
forest strumming

listen
i become the necklace song

the knife is loosed
heads hang like shells

now sing Credo
to wearing of skulls
the ego beads of your selective mind

You have no voice and
no new song?

I lower you then
through snakeland
as you once let Eurydice fall

look not up but down to water

orfeo of ego
you mad sex of men

meet the Dark One
and the wet
clean blood
