Evangeline

Nikki sudden
Evangeline-dusty child of weathered, vacant dreams.
Evangeline-scarves protect you from the nightingale screen.
As your waves flood over me
And rust flakes from the trees.

Evangeline-whiskey stains the tears you shed for me.
Evangeline-weary in your dregs of misery.
Evangeline-poets couldn't describe the way you feel.
Evangeline-Goya tapestry draped across your heel.
With an empty bottle in your hand
Your eyes shine like gas lamps on the Strand.

Evangeline-roses paint the curtains aubergine.
Evangeline-cemetery visions of you remain unseen.
Evangeline-lanterns hide the diaries of your dreams.
Evangeline-honey girl, with your tambourine.
As candles flicker through the room
Your whisper cancels out the moon.
