my love is building a buildingA
around you a frail slipperyB
house a strong fragile houseC
beginning at the singular beginningA

prison building thatandthis into ThusE
Around the reckless magic of your mouthF

my love is building a magic a discreteG
tower of magic and as i guessH

crumble the mouth flower fleetG
He'll not my towerJ

where the surrounded smileL
hangsM
-
breathlessE
