two poems for ghost writing

 

as seen from my hide

 

here is the bright of it

 

all this breathing

now we’re breath

I am

so circulate

 

all this life collecting

now

summer cast

 

the voices

belong

 

and when I was creature

believe me!

 

my story passes into soil too

to flame

 

everything narrower

now thin to where

 

see without eyes

hear without ears

 

say all afloat

 

so I go on my way

 

I, not I, in orchard zephyr

 

lie in wait for

now that the seasons are in me

 

sometimes I believe I’m tracing

words already written

 

so I go my ways

 

beyond myself

 

as ever again

 

(never say forever)

 

grown up in a crack

took off

midst

 

today is vanish

 

wild corridors of the garden

cloud come down

 

it’s like everything fitted into one day

 

we go back

but we’re already there

 

we each to moment

never as before

 

(never say forever)

 

you think this is how it will be from now

 

but there’s no now on

we’re there

 

here, as always, weather attending

 

you know how time gets faster as there’s less of it?

 

(never say forever)

 

well here we are

 

our bubble moment come

 

time’s up

you’re gone

 

not even a goner

you’re dusted and done

 

it means you are

of time

and out of it

in time

nowhere else

just

 

(never say forever)
