AYUKAYA

Dragon in the road
white belly up to the sky
red feathers
spread across the pavement

single red feather
wrested from the dragon

drifting now
from behind the sun
circling the sky
and invisible stars

circling now
round my hair
fiery halo ensnared
now
within a knot

red feather red
feather
knotted in
my golden hair
red feather ensnared
within
my golden hair

dragon in the road
red feathers
whirling
as life rushes by
busy busy
they don't see
red red dragon
white belly up
to the sky

Ayukaya
my red dragon
turns golden in the sun
golden in the sun

while my golden
hair
ensnared
turns red
turns red
red in the night
as my dragon turns golden
my golden dragon
my red hair

Ayukaya ....
