dandy lion

This poem begins with a sense of hopelessness, but transforms to freedom and power.  Three stanzas of “dandy lion”:

this night

I know why

I dream

I cry

no wing

no eye

no control

I die

I raise

fluffed lace

catch my star’s

birthplace

I’m a faithful

pale whore

dandy lion

I roar
