#1415 - getting a skyful

getting a skyful

or

up for it

 

of such song

atonal, too, often

or, as the stave, by mist

 

a sky in flower

 

and where prayer catches

cloud fray

 

sink of seeing

 

some sudden bright

 

how bung because we

 

weight of the book in my head

just looking

 

a million of us up there

 

and then the voices of the gone

ours now

how else

 

the mind fills up

 

a sky self repairing if let

 

in the dream

surviving to somewhere else

 

the yellow springs

or it’s another time

 

shaky hand to scribble this

 

time is fire

 

when window is wall

 

a day rots out from under us

where all of this sky remains

 

I surround myself with it

 

sometimes as if someone were with me

 

not ever the same cloud twice

 

nothing is far in my room
