We are not lovers, not brother and sister,
though we drift hand in hand through a hall
thrilling and burning as thought and desire
expire, and over this dream of life,
this life of sleep, we waken dying---
violet becoming blue, growing
black, black---all that
an iris ever prays,
when it prays,
to be.
----Li Young-Lee
