apollonian men
music + wine
naught but a valley
of lovers
you've left behind
a seeker of wisdom
+ beauty
an eye for an eye.
drum circles salted with
patronage -
dutiful
people -
+ songs of the sky.
cry to the big man beyond
the mountaintop: a cloud!
nighttime!
apollonian men
you've grown rather fond
of hunters + birds +the leaves on the trees
+a breakfasty food
if you'd please,
a woman,
a man.
if you'd please
to understand -
a broken piece an arrow to the knees
good morning, a day is seized.
a lyre in a stand
apollonian man.
