By Pawel Markiewicz
PROMPT—I am grateful for ...
If it becomes darkly in me
the meek dream comes into being almost never
the mind sleeps in
the Dark the night unfolds its wings
the dreameries are dying
they are jonesing for the lights
I-Apollo am kissing the nighttime
so that a blackness can be there
caliginosity enfolds daydreams
nocturnal fire such a spark
I can fly by night not at all
like owls in night arms
there is only my wishfulness
my spirits cribbing embers
of the murk fire places
I am singing some night ayres
somberly
the phantasy of the dun Erlking shines
with me

caliginosity = darkness
