A Wall in Crete
(Sept 25 -
recalled from the night before)
Paleokastro
heat
Hold a position in bed for 45 minutes :
desired
accepted
willed
submitted to
Catatonia
Deep-in some-thing
out-there
‘ This pale
wall displays history
runnels
rivers gushing
meandering
drying
up gullies
in all directions
beings were here making many things
long
gone
long
appeared ‘
(Sept 26)
‘My wall shows a jutting mountain from
just
after the beginning
it
will last and last
and
quaked crushed
riven
crumble
away
The uni.verse will take
little
note
one
of a quadrillion
in
its vicinity
jostling
for prominence
Paramountain
crumb
‘
(Sept 27)
‘The wall is dense with stars
speeding
fleeing
meteors among them
twirling
white streaks in the milky plane
fleeing
from
what
(
their dying pasts so present …
toward
what
(
their imminent futures …
known but not to them ‘
(Sept 28)
‘This white wall has an incipient black hole
for now a depression
whirling
quantum-levering
striving for new dimensions
on the other side
is a room
is room space
une
espace
dithering
while yet pass through the long-gone beings
as do its similars
to be long-gone
and arrive again some-
ever ‘
