COURT JUST HER 2012-01-20

Cheer the jester in the air
He draws a map of ether and earth
To reach deep down into your heart
I know he wants you beyond the skies.
A juggler, he throws his flying craft around
Shakes it, rattles it at times
To glide, he hopes, effortlessly to the ground
So his queen can applaud the absurd
Featherweight ephemeral flower of love
He wishes to offer,
A rare fragile wind flower
Up there, the manoeuvres are getting trickier
Spins and spirals, heads or tails, loop or noose.
Will she or won't she?
He leaves a burning trail of smoke,
His trace, dangerous for your health,
A turbulent wake
A wave of sorts in a never-ending swell
Uncoiled, untimed, undone
As it crashes on the shore.
Shells are trampled and cracked .
The reef will survive.

But the queen looked away
For a while.
