"Sahib's brass lamp"


from the ABC set ∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙this poem book that he gave

your ghosts shadow
this print of words
drifting through them,
gathering them.
a memory of
eyes blindfolded,
long wild mane
a small voice reciting;
the brass lamp
found and within it
a sheer,
burgundy wrap.

for Sahib
