The radio






Therefore
It concludes
With all
Hell
I lit
A cigar
And
The smell of
Jasmine
Wrote
Something
Bleak
In smoke
Like blood
From a
Pricked
Finger
Somehow
Balloons
Have a structure
But their
Surface has no edges
So time
Travels
Round the skin
Of an apple
The eve
Stole
From her fathers
Orchard
And Adam
Smokes
In his suit
Jacket
And sits
With his
Plate of
Lamb chops
If I saw the
Light coming through
The window
It would be
Only for the grace
Of God
And for
The smoke
To fill
The room
I love and am
Loved by the same
Jasmine
That dances
Over the walls
Between
Fences that make good neighbors
Fences
That have tall trees
Between them
So much love
for the light
but still
Adam and Eve
Live alone together
In silence
Only giving love to each
Other and God
And the radio
