BLUE NUDE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Please take this shy spanish girl
Last Line: Already stirring toward morning, where it will be white.
Subject(s): Silence; Travel; Truth; Journeys; Trips


Please take this shy Spanish girl
whom they say you resemble
and ride with her, here are the field poppies
damaged by night, here your blue slumber, your horse.
Take this prayer, which you must surrender
in order to understand, as in moments when you are reduced
to the truth. When you are ready,
the beasts will be there. Let silence go through your heart,
the mild horse your blue one
already stirring toward morning, where it will be white.
