There are moments I land And the sweep of the sand Sets me twitching to sink again To that chore-pummeled haze Where I measure the days By the height of the blue vervain And the slant of the rain. Though it’s never quite the same Once you Pierce through And view The reason that you came. Listen to your breath. Mind The slow still constant waxing divide. Leave the body behind. There are time when I’m still And relinquish the will To maintain my solidity. When the weight of my bones Is sufficient alone To dissolve all the enmity. So simple to see. Much more difficult to be. Once you Pierce through… Though impales me like arrows.

Little Lamb, In the time before you came through Dust trails and omens we aimlessly swam. Little Lamb, Little five-pointed star shooting Prismatically o’er the Earth All the shades in your little command. I was cruel. I got angry. I grew savage as a bear. I didn’t care. That you were new. You were rough. You were stumbling. You were you And you were there. Little Lamb, With your back built to bear Every burden inherited over again. Little Lamb, I can’t know how that feels Though I too have been stolen Away by soft longings for beauty and then… I was cruel… Little Lamb, Where I once hid the impulse towards darkness You planted a bulb in the sand. Little Lamb, In that aridly streaked plot So barren and bleak not Another would think to relay such demands. You were true. You were blind to all deceptions to all plans. You showed your hand. Could you approve Of a long past due attempt to understand? I think you can.
