For Guillevick and Genevieve Poem by Ashok Vajpeyi
For Guillevick and Genevieve
She held a bird
in her hands
rearing to brave
the sky—empty endless blue.
He was an ancient
humpbacked rock
crouching in wait
for them.
He was aflame with desire
The bird with waiting
The sky was there
without desire
waiting for nothing.
He was both simple
and profound.
She was a girl
He a god.
And this is a
poem before
the tragedy.
The sky is
a benevolent but
a greedy poet.
