Lunar Baedeker (1959)
by Mina Loy

A silver Lucifer

serves

cocaine in cornucopia



To some somnambulists

of adolescent thighs

draped

in satirical draperies



Peris in livery

prepare

Lethe

for posthumous parvenues



Delirious Avenues

lit

with the chandelier souls

of infusoria

from Pharoah's tombstones



lead

to mercurial doomsdays

Odious oasis

in furrowed phosphorous---



the eye-white sky-light

white-light district

of lunar lusts



---Stellectric signs

"Wing shows on Starway"

"Zodiac carrousel"



Cyclones

of ecstatic dust

and ashes whirl

crusaders

from hallucinatory citadels

of shattered glass

into evacuate craters



A flock of dreams

browse on Necropolis



From the shores

of oval oceans

in the oxidized Orient



Onyx-eyed Odalisques

and ornithologists

observe

the flight

of Eros obsolete



And "Immortality"

mildews...

in the museums of the moon



"Nocturnal cyclops"

"Crystal concubine"

-------

Pocked with personification

the fossil virgin of the skies

waxes and wanes----
