#1082 - this is where we stand time still

this is where we stand time still

 

some elephants run through my head

drunk as the young often

a kind of weather

 

they are moving my cheese again

the treetops

fauna passing

 

this is where we stood time still

 

we were gone from the clock altogether

dizzy with

 

so far so good so

 

this is where we stood

guessed skies

dared them falling

borrowed and beyond

 

in bones and in the one wave over

 

a day beyond itself

 

they are running through my head

the hoard, the herd

 

by careful word and come unbidden

 

where we begin to put back together

 

they are hung out to dry

just in the paint where we are

 

thumb opposite

and left to light

poor creatures we all are
