"mandolin dreams"

mandolin dreams beneath
a pearl drop moon.
bathe me in velvet, disappear
and offer me to the sun.
burn the threads of shadows
as my reflection reappears;
then snatch my chains,
hook them to the dangerous eyes
of your savage soul.
glare to keep mankind at bay
as what is their taboo is not ours.
summon the golden dragon
so that i may now do his bidding.
