Sonnet XVI
gain gravitation in the heart of Mecca,
the resting place for Kaaba. Sun has fainted.
A lucky coven cooks for stars a blackout.
I keep a tomb of IMHOs barely sainted
and follow accolades, the days to reckon...
When haloes are effloresced and untainted
the scent of love is stronger than a second.
And yet no coffin has been chiseled quickly,
no ersatz word can hide in grin its weakness.
The verse is made of fire – choose a keeper
for burning notes of pain. This music’s prickly,
but, if you look above your sheltered bleakness,
the sky is sowing rays, an eye roots deeper.
