Cat�s eye reflects porcelain verve�s glitter
beyond our acumen, above our views,
stars live to tell the tale, a way to conjure.
Echoes reach to come and go in night,
Nile bound winks berseem laid green watery light,
that flows past split and silky lingua,
fruit�s passion moving on inescapable.
Nile�s trickled water drips this leaf�s vein,
rock dead and the dust pearled faith darkens milk-eye
light on earth. Living verse brings her back,
piece by piece splendor speckles brown eye�s luster,
big with poems wings begin to stir paths,
dazed stars choke rise and fall back rising again.
They shine with their secret lives and gleam.
