One cloud in no sky
dying later sooner never
constant supervision of the real
humid means the air was breathed
before
mean room in empty touristy hotel
only believe what wind tells in that
other language
in brightest sunshine heard the child
forgets
Ghost Trio playing to the sunset
phrase
cart full of dead trees Atu XV
everything changes
oxygen found on Mars iron on earth
Blake in heaven
slowly adding and adding up to zero
the old couple next door suddenly
look like kids.
146.
And ate this flower Old Man Is Young
Again
I found it where the new snake left
it
on cool cement by the house door
agathodaimon
all the ceaseless gifts of living
things
to those of us who soil the air with
speaking
all our religions and dollar signs
and sighs
and these sweet people gave us bass
and fluke
to wind again the clock stopped when
the old man died
the song they sadded me with when I
was young
overwhelm me and be better each of us
one step
use me all the way up
the strangest things can break the
heart an empty room.
