Wake Poem by Anthony Weir

Wake

Rating: 5.0


Philosophy's a corpse
continually washed and combed
wordblind, megalithic
I prise open its eyelids

to receive the light
of the dark dog-star.

That which is written is hollow:

illegibility
of knowing,
everything repeated
an hundredfold -

we climb in
but never climb out.

we climb in but never climb out. just stand still you won't need a way out. That which is written is hollow: you the one not written, dear fellow
