The Garden of Earthly Delights
By Joseph Byrd & Dorothy Moskowitz*


Poisonous gardens, lethal and sweet,
Venomous blossoms
Choleric fruit deadly to eat

Violet nightshade, innocent bloom,
Omnivorous orchids,
Cautiously wait, hungrily loom


You will find them in her eyes,
In her eyes, in her eyes
You will find them in her eyes,
In her eyes, in her eyes

Petrified willows, twisted and brown
Carrion swallows,
Wait in the wet darkening ground

Withering shadows, quietly grow,
Potently breeding,
Into a spectacular glow.

You will find them in her eyes,
In her eyes, in her eyes
You will find them in her eyes,
In her eyes in her eyes

Lemonous petals, dissident play,
Tasting of ergot,
Dancing by night, dying by day

Blackening mushrooms drink in the rain,
Sinister nightblooms
Wilt with the dawn's welcoming pain

You will find them in her eyes,
In her eyes, in her eyes
You will find them in her eyes,
In her eyes, in her eyes
