Xena
Our ship leaves Trinity Bar,
in darkness and green light,
to Africa or further far,
tell me, tell me daughter,
your lips a place of fight,
why sail among this slaughter,
Bow spit carries your alarm,
when bells ring out the night,
will we meet our patriarch,
like a song across the sea,
the Maghreb is within sight
its warm embrace holy,
when i touch your sweet star,
across this shining bite,
it warns of useless pillars,
eternal hope of semaphore,
rose petals of sweet delight,
crusted bird cried orators,
your eyes a constant flight.
