    Mirror Twins.

    Persi Phone
    and
    Prosper Pine
    watch
    birds fly
    darkness went
    as dawn
    came
    God ghost dreams
    dazed dum
    passing
    fall flowers
    clouded memories
    his lost selves
    frolic singing
    gleam moon
    wavering chaste
    shadow likeness
    doppelganger dark mate
    dead nahh mo
    peeps
    human-godlike
    swimming winter gray
    folded arms
    mastabatin peeps
    first peeps
    serpent-wanded power
    downward Hex drift
    spectres, lighted below
    red race fiery
    befell
    re-arise
    lighted
    cry
    Shadowville, Iowa, and more!
    pleasant vale
    Kite field ablaze
    flowers brighten,
    black blur
    chasm blue `64
    dark rising
    folded arms
    shudder
    face like uh glass
    gulf
    shrilly whinings
    pierce songful air
    arch'd necks midnight-maned
    Jet upward No!
    touch'd space
    blank earth-baldness
    crocus-purple hour
    seen ya vanish
    gone
    human wives nested
    lioness search
    palace cot grave
    tittie
    waking
    one whole
    wail midnight winds
    night whined
    climb'd cliffs seas
    ask'd waves moan
    round voices
    eagle-speak
    negroid woods
    tomb caves torms
    Autumn swept city
    murmur
    turn'd
    fled
    grieved
    kudzu shatter'd
    serpent coil'd broken shaft
    scorpion naked skulls
    tiger ruin'd fame
    Spring fallen
    not far
    labyrinthine dark
    three grays beneath gleaming
    voice from three
    spin lives
    why we's spin

    dying man
    flits warns
    far-off nahh more
    o' dreams heard cry
    Drew likeness o' himself
    shadow past
    brudda Dark one
    Bright sworn child
    Power
    lifts
    Bride o' Darkness.

    Shadowville wail'd
    coffee smack'd o' hemlock,
    colt 45 tasted aconite.
    lives loves an hour
    hard Eternities
    quick tears ravings hush'd
    Bird utter grief
    life thro vine
    helpless
    Rain-rotten died, spears
    hollow-husk'd,leaf fell,
    Pale grief before his tyme
    Sickening winter snow.
    glancing from his height
    fallow, miss'd
    steam sacrifice,
    nine moons with him
    Three dark ones

    reaper gleam dawn
    landmark far away
    field in dusk
    threshing-floor
    harvest LaGrange
    ill-content
    highest gray fox
    "Save me from you?"
    down before us?
    hurl thunderbolt
    nuetron sword bearer
    noon into nightbreak
    sunless halls
    dark lord
    die into Light
    bright year
    themselves against fear

    Queen o' Swords
    risen from dead
    with mine
    buried springing blade
    Autumn
    harvest hymns
    see nahh more
    Stone Wheel
    dimly-glimmering lawns
    hateful fires
    torment shadowy warrior glide
    silent field
    in the hood
