Naked Eloquence

      Shards of naked eloquence,
      permanent acquaintance in a glance,
      an isosceles triangle constructed by chance
      as when the world falls together 
5                               on the disheveled bed.
      Shapes of light and greatness
      confound the eye to quietness
      and all the rest as well, unless,
      confessing naked eloquence
10    and stretched to a howl
      I stand with my back 
      to the midnight clocks
      and drop my cock 
                           to the caustic waters,
15    my soul to spawn.
