.....

I want the blindness of blood
the uplift of earth
to occur with the flip of a page
and the body to keep turning younger.


Or I want the occurrence that crosses planets
the body turning in prayer
I want the blindness of earth
the uplift of blood to be accomplished.


Stretched on these that have added to me
the shared light for a moment spreads
and is furthered, not muffled, by thought
the fondness for gardens draws
an acid bath from the architecture of heaven.
