About


This and These and Others

There is a place where I go to sea.

Where things once worn were

I hear there, there is time

And I make marks that resemble

The assemblies

That flash there like gold water birds

Some are caught in my nets

And they are now songs in formed by these hands

Forming forms returning to seas

That I will not betray

By erasing the words of their lines
