A Song
that wraps up memories
in rare expensive silk
that charms hurt hearts to bloom
deep red again with trust
sing me such a song
such a songthat lifts a roister cup
pick-me-up for passion
that makes a bedding room
smirk in sheet-wrinkled lust
sing me such a song
such a songthat beckons me to sup
Ian Sowton, 2013, The Stink of Experience
again with absent pleasures
that ambushes my gloom
with laughter fit to bust
sing me such a song
such a song
