poems - upon waking/ found

Catholics
are afraid of
falling, falling
heights and bridges
My bridges over
Muybridge's waterfalls

Old Eusebius
who will kill
without skill
while I remember others
emptied of promises

 (a holiday)

Raise
a full cup,
witness
an orphaned calf,
as the whole moon
embraces
sun-culled
beasts.
Feasts are
funerals.

A mound
half round
was once a dun.
Ruins.
Fortresses fall.

Gilded edges,
books, clay, stone,
words alone
mean nothing.
Yet I write,
fight
for solicitude.

I came to this world of reading
but was not completed
as I imagined.
The longing that exists between things
has remained with me.
It has always been my guide.

私たち 
we are
polyrhthymic
intrapersonal
intelligences.
respect our
b o u n d a r i e s.

It's impossible to change into something you long for.
You could be able to change the future on your own.
That's the reason why we continue to something exciting.
