Diving Down The Hill
Hear the clashes of Damascus steel, rippling through tonight’s battlefield
Scaling ridges ‘cross the lake from torrential rain with no shield
There’s no further enveloping, nor rapturous taste to many a talented tongue under the sun
Than salted blood of enemies fatal wounds on a victorious sword
Smoked sweet by serenading sparks of slashing notes
Save one…
Both are chalices for the exquisite champagne of an eternal eros ‘round the clock
My clavicles, and those of King Solomon, are of the same stock
A stronger, deeper love still
Climbing up carnelian cliffs
And diving down the hill
