HEWKER

Tonight I will visit a tib

First, a tipple

Dripping amber drink, enfolding sap

Gold-fleeced sheep’s rippling hair

Flesh’s ink my digging nib sinks into

Go slowly with me, Monto’s most innocent soul

Epipsychidion, lost tribe Midian claiming descent from Abraham

Taking clam handfuls, dandy plootered on hop-sud dram, self balm

Bloom hand of hidden kindness, which is life’s wine

Vine recurrent thousandtimes, ignoring climates

Beanstalking ever higher, passing plane pilots.
