I OUTER BANX-7:THEN CAME THE DUSK

O my dear in dusk!
Where do I hear
Your husky voice
From?

Then came the dusk
with torqoise and ambrose
and we jumped through the window
to the water
in long shirt
and acacia
singing along a blue love song
under the veil
of the night.
I know the sky
when it turns colors
with the day.

O my dear in dusk!
Where do I here your husky voice from?
O my forgotten dear!
