like a golden blade gold curve like a blade of light palladium pavilion
against may's showers and the train racing the train shooting through a tube
of snow pistons sheathed in a tunnel snow glove on reverse rolling
snow tracks the shot of the train in the snow the punch of the train in the snow like a
hole of hissing of whirring of whistles for there where the train stops that lady
will be for there where the train arrives the lady will be for there where the snow snows where
the night nights where the end ends the lady will be her soft sparkling stutter
stammering her rockaby lullaby her tender timid turtledove tremulous trill
of murmurs of rumors mumbling rumbles warbling chirping chirps

tamed bitten gnawed on ground pulp of words like biting one's
tongue like twisting one's tongue like someone meting out and mulling
quivering containing constricting predicting depicting inflicting afflicting
one's tongue the bitten tongue aching inside a kiss of words a breath a breeze
a whiff a waft an aura an aroma of words it's only a lady against the paper
screen of an imaginary fan whispering nothings monogatari stories of
paper on a fan the blue oval rising like the moon tsuki aoi tsuki but
ahoj also means hi hello or goodbye elsewhere where the snow snows
and the moldau freezes over where snow's bald and the vltava goldene stadt
spires cusps cornices of gold against the snow flüsternd the voice of that
lady her words becoming gossamer fog flitting fluttering like a body
of fog spring in winter springing into winter when the train snaps
like a rubber band in the snow in the finger of the white glove of snow as the book
writes itself in that suspended white shot of the train cutting close razor thin cutting
