SORCERY from SORCERY by KASTRUBA (ANTHONY X. JACKSON )

Sorcery.

I know where your secret
Kisses flew to
I know what your great grandmother
Certainly knew...
About you
There are bats in floral crowns
There are soldiers who refuse
To lay their arms down
There is Tsunami slap dash
Fluttering around the way you walk
The way you sash
Slash the air with heavy metal
Every time you pass
My bated breath
You stalk

With your whip lash
Eye batting thunder blasts
After the gasp of lightning
Sorcery
Surely
Inviting
Casts

Hermes depraved
Falling from heaven
Into the pillow of your breath
Which always leavens
Reaching
Reaping
Snake charming
Lessons...
