Eric Dolphy in Copenhagen 1961

into ice

being
buries souvenance

drag horse
from hole
with your teeth
& fine strands
of hair

inherit
tongue

after
upheaval

procession
of light

hand held
flame

in ocean
of thorns

whisper
demise

dead

divulge
equation
promise
run

run

run
as nights
collide

stay inside

shouldering shadows
perfect
perish

another absolute
animals
offer to

our sad species
after upheaval

centre
collapses beloved
species

fabric foretold
invocations

birds broke
into flight

weight of wings
threatens
thread

wave
of blood
bathes
time

murmur
to murdered moon

wear veil
of appearances

extinct
sleep
at last
inevitable
