A Story Told By A Stone
In lamplight the blue agate
is a firestar on the white
expanse of Radhika's throat.
It signals, "Here, here lives the firebird song. Here is the geography for the dark hued one to map with his mouth.
Here is another metaphor for a hymn to the quaking rain, knock knocking all afternoon at the bay windows."
