Alizarin Red S and Alcian Blue
By W. Gregory Stewart
a skeleton
(an armature of serpent)
a rabbit's faith in miracle
and the haunt
of horses before the moonwind
plow the seas, fish the fields--
ride you down that river to
the rainbow or the storm--
Wagyl, fly
Quetzalcoatl, fly
Serpent of Midgaard, Peacock and hen,
fly, you
before the clouds, before
still beasts in cold glass,
black velvet and cold iron pins
before the moonwind, fly
