And the ocean is breathed -
One bereft - a wave, followed
By another, followed -
Men, lost, this mortal firmament,
...
I was bright and all alone,
In the middle of the sea -
A moai bust chiseled from the stone,
One thousand miles from Rapa Nui.
...
Pass the day for bravado,
And I will not meet your eye –
The waves of barley pass below
A wake of hurricane
...
Come now, rather, come and see,
See, when time avails -
Dust devil trails in Martian sands,
Rails across the Amazon, till
...
They didn’t say, and so
They suffered, the long-drawn
Breath between the lie and
The cover-up - the shrill of
...
What is, what was, the assembling
Of the fractured parts - aggrandized historic
Porcelain - significant now,
Had no meaning at the time.
...
Let me see it for myself, when the air is
Not obscured, and there’s no denial of
Mortal sight between the harvest moon
And here
...
Standing fast against the tide,
Hatred pulls me deep inside.
Under ebbs and under brows -
This dark emotion I arouse.
...
Insignificant fly
Bring me home
I just want to go
World around
...
How something virtuous fades
To the persistence of clock-hands play -
Rays of moonbeam gradated,
Dusk-to-dusk eternal.
