"Tristana" (Rough Draft) by David Hart
O, Tristana mine heart doth flutter with joy
For you--so lissom and lithe my Tristana
Tristana, most protean, under undulating skys
She gracefully dances in profluent ecstasy
My heart opens for the exhuberant Tristana
Amidst galliard crisp verdant fronds
The winds caress my dear sensuel Tristana
Vocab: galliard-lively; profluent-flowing forth
protean-ever changing, changeable;

Original 2001 version
"A Presentiment"
Lissom Gaea, Protean Gaea, variegate, grizzled,
Xanthous, Hematic Gaea, Mauve, nigrescent,
Fuscous and cerulean Gaea--
Profluent Gaea, fructiferous Gaea, in galiard meads
Galore,
Wend your rivers fulgurant--exhuberant!
Away Halcyons! Garboil in gales!
Whiffle the fronds and
Xyloid spires
Gargantuan and exiguous
Relume matutinal Aurora -- Dazzle!
Waft Nyx with wan vallations.
Exuviate Gaea,
Unmortise!
Rejoice with your brethren.
Alackaway, Damnant Quod non intelligunt.
