Kit Kelen #1036 - we are small here


1036
we are small here 
 

we are small here
this world shakes

we are nothing
in the all

we are waiting
got on with

I hear the others too
and colour to the unfurling

light is all pointing
you're taken in

...I have the sea in my lands
a little ocean runs me round

and the years come on
swell to, wear through

isn't it into the skin
we all vanish?

between applause
much wept

speck in all the time there is
no one to say, to have said

I am a voice
lost in the singing

ever less I am lost
in the words for a long time

work on the crossings out, work them
little bird comes in

finding itself in a tune
I sharpen it all with my eyes

look down into a page
and I take myself away

gone when I am so small to have been
so small to have been here
