Poetry by Sean Bowley

Queen of Foxes

Somewhere beyond the sun

Remains a timeless face
Framed in ink, poetry and life

Sparks push back the night


Summoning winds of change
Igniting the fire of creation
The queen of foxes waits
Calling the wild ones home

Flaming blue eyes traced in kohl
Mariners mark upon her face

What do the stars and donkeys say


Oh queen of inked delight?



Embracing waves of untamed vision


Fond memories cast in a ring


A lockless gilded cage

Steadies the gull's flight home


Raise the moon one more time


Play the devil for a fool


Drink the ocean's roar tonight


I'll meet you at twilight's pool
