Song
Light in the water, the effect of what water does
to water-on-water and light is diamond and candle
light that dances only on water, and only the water
has edge to invite light. Each break of water allows
what stars allow and makes my entry easy. The water
rocks, back and forth, and it is itself as easy as
moonlight, as the sun, everything in contrary harmony.
I have seen the sun and the moon in the water at once.
Huge star sitting in the middle of a wide road, with halos
and points alike flowering as centers. The quick function
of life is perhaps that of dream: an equal velocity:
my master is an always new geometry. Magic is easy,
frank — nature (natura naturans — we’re all a part)
is a sort of breakage that tends to the specific: we lament
only the magnificent lesson
