Hour For Magic

Resident mockery,
Give us an hour for magic.
We of the purple glove.
We of the starling flight and velvet hour.
We of arabic pleasure's breed.
We of sundome and the night.

Give us a creed
To believe
A night of Lust
Give us trust in
The Night

Give of color
Hundred hues
A rich Mandala
For me and you

And for your silky
Pillowed house
A head, wisdom
And a bed

Troubled decree
Resilent mockery
Has claimed thee

We used to believe
In the good old days
We still receive
In little ways
The Things of Kindness
And unsporting brow
Forget and allow
