The Swan Maiden...Mateless...Dances Poem by elysabeth faslund

Lullaby softly, hands clapping, rings jingling
Watching eyes' tantamount glance
Falling softly, two shoes dancing, circling,
Swirling whirlpool down,
Down softly, partners parted...

Shout Hallelujah!
Let's hear it, Jeremiah!
Ezekial four-face, telling on Time, selling Time
Past sunsets cloud-banked sunrise,

Shout Hallelujah! !
To shore, belly Jonah! !
One more hour...
Lullaby soft...

Cuddle quietly papered Time, wrapped names
Swirling whirpool down,
Down ever whispering
One more hour...
Baby-song soft.

Witness Judas...
Silver silencing
One more hour...
Lullaby, lullaby...
Chained sunrise
Whispers hallelujah....
