Superconductor Reactors

Superconductor reactors and play masquers
And women in wild costume
Tonight the theater marquees squinted
And sand flies sung in the moonlight
Hands tiny were held, and the mouths were wet with delicious kisses
These were the amoral tendencies
The bluffs
The fantasies quite bold
Caught out of season
The broken debts, the facile ironies
The implacable lusts to cling with clenched fists
All of us were troubadors this night
Made glorious – sing, hurrah! hurrah!
Ha-ha!
With a snap of the fingers
We disappeared
Moonlight and mastodons
Mystics and marauders
A startling soufflé
Shuffling to the speed of light
