The Visit

My eyes went up It was sunrise The sky turned black It was noon A ship of the silverest Metal Shadowed out All of the moon A shape That was golden and crimson Extend a claw To my frame I sunk in the sand Like an infant I screamed But my tongue was lame My heart on a platter They'd stolen My eyes Were all fiery flame A sound like sweet dove I did stutter And then the ship Swum the skies again
