#1838 - a quickening

 


1838

6.10

10.i.25

a quickening

 

a bird as loud as day

this window

 

as many eyes as I

 

as close to death as anyone

 

and all the same beyond

 

this reaching

our star far

 

I have that same tree in me

leaf and shade and light

 

bury myself under this all

bitten there

 

rain comes to touch

 

humble it is to be in the book

 

it’s human to be here
