Tiger Music

O Undressed lovingly O
Virelence athwart the thought
Longly caressed in mind
Undrest the naked harp
Whose lean strings I pluck
And pull the tiger blazing
Musickly
From the green lair
To orchestrate love -
Andante the undulating ribbon
Of his tawny theme,
The rhythmic meat and bone
Of a flexe'd jungle chord.
Dark song devour me nude
Chant carnivorous love
O animalled amour.
