though
at such a window there was
yet unseen by the human
eye those small limbs
a tree of veritable life
significant in the way
it thrilled me. So
come forth with your decree
so tawdry freedom reigns
permit the loose lock
to swing again in moon
flooded pastures of 
blacktop in early spring. Oh
yet the balcony was spanish 
you know what i mean so
dark metal a robed flutter
the music strained romantic
we left with less sound than
so intimate so frightening. Lo
