MOONLIGHT DANCER
Frenzied
Lost in tunes that was immortal
Sat I, on sea bed
This night; made virgin
To, watch in oblivion
Dance steps of the goddess
Bleat
Oh, drums of life
Skin of the wild that was gone
Bleat to the ears of our gods
And, to them be it known
We mortals have stared their molten eyes
At wake of the returning waves
Ululates -
Echoes, of distant shores
Sepulchral,
To them that was gone -
Music dance of the sea goddess
And, fears discarded
Fear that might lurk out; us mortals
Enshrouded in owns hindsight
Was sworn into secrecy; a ritual of courtship
As waves break into silence
… Its ascendancy that was void
