UNUTTERABLE UNWRITTEN Poem by Dane Zajc

unutterable unwritten
embedded in the mystery of the world

the vicinity of its eyes
it comes all of a sudden
it drinks you
it sips yours
and you its eyes

an elongated moment
erasing all that was
will be
what you've done what you've seen

a desert comes
staggering comes
then suddenly it lunges
it spreads itself out
the shroud of the irrevocable

you know you should not invoke it
nor whisper it
you know you'll kill it
destroy it - word

I said wrote uttered it
it that is the reminiscence of finality
