litanies as merciless dividers
pearly rain protectors & providers
oh at land the eye becomes the author
tenses drift & one outlasts the other
my dear i'm new at this & i'll still be when i'm through with it
so now i'm done for; what had i begun for?
gusty blows to hold or loose an arrow
nerves at odds in proprietary peril
husk & soot to spread amid the myrtle
rituals reset to feed the fertile
bleed dry the finite to suffer what we stole to whistle
barrier & bottle & pinprick of parted hair bristle
moonlight is in tow, shimmered in tidal decorum
faded & mottled, lacking source or static form
