Crows (Entree Poem in Safari Pants)

Knifed soles wade
Through the tears of this sad jungle

Tunes of a sinking lily
That begs the prickly bath of ripples

Wit of nodding tree
That frowns over the crack of their fringes

Tunes that will never swim
Into the crotch of theft-laden belly

My pant is Braille to the blind lepers

These naked tunes are faithless groans
Locked in the fart of silences

Safari Pants, p. 12

I have read this a number of times. I'd be interested to see another poem from your collection, if possible, so as I have more of a flavour of the volume.
