There
is a square standing
a
square on earth
and
a square on sky,
each
holding roots
branches
& tails.
Earth
sea
earth
again,
and
a great sky above us.
I
show you the shapes
the
bright shapes across the sky
for
you to see
what
I can’t verbalise.
We
were bred to look at the sky
nurtured
by its illusions
and
starry hallucinations,
without
any appreciation of the reality
and
its immanence.
Unless
seduced by earth
the
head keeps twisting
each
cloud a story
each
story a universe.
