Altered my old age by your song
memories of your body speak for me.
Former nuances of freedom,
something in me vibrates past.
Wrapped in delicate leaves untouched
in silent scrolls from nothing.
I write in the style of the great poets:
but went for you as most hellish of lovers.
Nothing in me rhythms if it was not for your body
or parts of your body or bodies of your eyes,
to sing love under your melodious whisper.
After whims and follies took the soul,
the body grew greedy and insane
to chew in silence, every word.
