La Pluie Des Chevaux Morts


In rain
They dance
To the fall of gumdrops
To seldom return

It is here
Wisps remain
Adrift like winter bees in the air
To someday reform

Gather in pods
To bypass the dew
Like primeurs
In a famine of candy leeches

In eves
Of nectarous midsummer
They march by my house
yearning me to awake

Years pass
Still dreaming
They never come by
For I never awoke

In all these years
I missed my wedding
I left her waiting on a caravan trail
