Stephane Humbert Lucas
The Queen and the Viper 
A mentholated breath upon papyrus.
A solar barque, a queen, her devotee.
Two shores, a sea split in two, a sea for two.
In the days-of-light, a felucca, a galley, filled.
With unguents, spices, potions opening worlds.
A triangle-woman, geometric and sensual, a throne-woman, an emerald.
A beacon-perfume, a formula, an Alexandrine.
