Kit Kelen #81 - the singing is the closest sky


the singing is the closest sky
(song)


the singing is the closest sky
messages most meaning


it comes to us without a word
though feathered, fine in bone


or lighter till diaphanous
a brilliant steel sky chorus


the singing is the closest sky
messages most meaning


each other animal lives its truth
will only guess when put upon
not to know but do


not knowing is a panic too
it could lead to faith


as in a dream
we wish a way


squeeze meaning
from each turn of world


and sometimes
we have wings
or burrow


the singing is the closest sky
messages most meaning


here on earth
it's all from scratch
incision meaning surface


see fences are in the business of falling
set out to know and you will


look up
eyes shut
and ear to it


the singing is the closest sky
messages most meaning

  1. I love the text and image. I feel as if I could almost grasp the meaning and hold it but it's just ahead of me round a corner
