#117 - with everything known we are responsible


27.4.20
117
with everything known we are responsible

think of nothing
try it!

number between zeroes
already a light shone in on

with each good grip
delight
with every day
the weather
                              
with everyone else
a will we now

signals

in every book
a fit of words
and spill the memories
long after, lest…

in every blessing
curses fall
clockswept
we’re away

with every laugh
some slapstick fall

must be at someone’s expense

in every kiss
give lip

in every inkling, attitude

in each self – the soul –
illusion of eternity

art hutch
we have come from somewhere

with every thought
some other hum

here are the leaves
to tell tree

here’s the ant for heap
a long rhyme

in all tautology
our wishes went
shook the dust from ratty tails

in every day
some doing done

and we come round again

with everyone else
a will we now
and what do you know

every heart
its hunch

each touch
a tendril turn
we world with

in every truth
all alien
pressing to attain

with every will

each chord a big noting too

all of the each-ness
otherwise us

and upside down
still see

in every ancient instinct – candle

swim in that mirror
it’s smoke
this self

all under heaven
come clouds

in time
the tap tap tap
of neither nor

worm up to the sun
and grovel
hay hum

all aloft for flight
lift, thrust and each propel

for every flag its fool
go anthem under

for a church
its stone upon stone
prison toil

with each look
how a thing is held
to be

in every tinpot coup
new resentments rise

with every blink all seen
and inwardly

each star with its stallion run

over the weather a wish
each elsewhere pill
all erstwhile
praise

each death a telling done

with each trembling
the knees
it’s business

up to tricks
hover

in all the old tunes
lovely lies

air angel apt
in deity

in breadrise
little butter bricks

with every breath signs tuneful  
brim

with ready or not
and here comes a chopper
tickle me pink

every inch of the way

with all of the others
our love
