LEAVING THE GLOBAL THERMOSTAT BEHIND FROM LAND TO SEA

Every river felt the leading edge of each wing
from my sins, and with the narrow walls
the backbone of a long mountain on two sides of the cupula,
to sulphur-colored owls tremor at rest and cogwheel

eggs feel the touch for all three pairs of canals
of the tyrant flycatchers to build an electric organ,
male's song more emphatic mass after mass

the rock had been lifted up on sides of breast and flanks;
so the hair bundles in groves and orchards of country
blot out all before the cell breaks apart
fishlet is still confined to read music

2000 distinct odors from one topographic surface
by towering chains of eye-ring; two white bars
winds on ocean-warmed mountains
