Song Of The Jungle Stream |
Song of the jungle stream |
It’s in this jungle |
Of lovingly obscure possibilities |
In light as yellow |
As all else is green |
That spring water |
Becomes warm |
Spread by the wind |
And softly faulty |
Invites eyes to follow it |
From beginning to end |
But eyes |
Directed by anything |
Even wind |
End up watching it |
Fixed and dried up |
From within |
Concentratedly |
No longer of the jungle stream |
One is reminded of nothing |
Birds exchange wings like facts |
Strangely unintelligible to understanding |
A musk deer asleep |
On his nose his hooves |
Any young birds skyline hindrance |
To flying |
In crisp middle of the night |
All jungle animals turn over |
In communication |
At the meowing of peacocks |
Turning the black sky’s stars blue |
And life rains down on us |
As we arrange the grafting |
Of hair to tree |
To make of another next |
Wire strata horizon |
An access of clarity |
And the jungle border |
Draws and drags the dying man |
Towards its customs |
