fantastic light

for a field guide to Australian clouds

 

have you seen the godbeams?

have you drawn a bow?

 

I think the voices are all held

depend upon

 

fantastic light

fleeced forth

 

time surpassing

 

so much weather up there

 

we give it the wet dog shake

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

grey anvil trudge and blear

for a field guide to Australian clouds

 

the fleet above us

sombre so

wise hulled

as if a drift thus far

 

call home

touch too

and float with

 

it’s we approximate a shape

 

let’s call them naturals

 

they came from the breath

of a tree to be

 

it’s in such presence

sing
