While I Prophesy

Tracing the worried orbit
around the flaw in your dark eye,
silver crack in earthy iris

above and below it
beside it beside it

I
try

charms and potencies
and deft flicking fingers

and all the while
you stand by

you have no need
for me to rectify
what is, after all,

only a spot of light
in your
twice-lucid eye
