An Implement
The strange landscape over me,
the two sides of the river,
are like scaly snakeskin.
My powdered pale eyes
washed over desolate and dangerous-
My powdered pale eyes,
a colony of dry troglodytes.
Late in the afternoon,
my eyes cut the
descending, mysterious sun.
I gathered in the Lands
I gathered in the field
to consume the ground,
the ground that was running to
the sun, a yellow moon
like a universal heater.
Working from memory, I traveled
About home, before I slept
Wriggled,
And thought in any direction.
Suppose in the night
I overcome the odd outcrops
Eyes, a cold boundary between east and west.
caught like the ravines built barks of fire
My eyes were sharp like frost
My eyes were swept of creation.
Personality, exploration, an American writer.
A picture of my memories, diagnostic truths,
Identified as interest, not inquiry.
Eyes, apart in journey and put in process.
