Twelve Narratives of the Gypsy

And thus I, the smiling anchorite,
the destroyer who blasphemes
in the sulfuric heat of our lands,
feel the freshness of belief inside
of me and I dreamed of living
among them though even them
cried out: go gypsy, go.
Let them exile me. I revere them
I the speaker of beautiful truth
none of the demagogue revenge
guides me and for this I stand
before you so you can hear me
chiming my slow, funereal bell.
