The feast. The Kingdom of the Sun
but Wind helped to avoid
big losses, and Hot Bloom
invited him to feast
in her bright castle the eve
of rescue from intrusion.
He took the invitation.
Bloom ended conversation
and they made for the castle.
Her slaves adorned a hall.
They lit torches on all walls
and even in dark aisles.
The castle had cozy sight.
The yellow tender light
went through the carved old torches
and threw black shadows on
the ceiling and the floor.
They reach for a dark porch.
The feast started at night
as clocks begin to bite
the midnight. Music run
through Bloom’s big crowdie hall.
Cold Wind danced there too long
with Bloom. The sun went up…
