1242

birdily

all up with

shaky from the air

think firstness

flurry flutter

a sleepless song in halflight

nothing alarming in that

and dream

first bird

invents itself

from same old singing

makes light of it

tip a wing towards

in a yellow patch

now hours

volume up

altitude

sunstruck, so amazed

then thread a way through  

now seen

lice hidden in a song

we say

all this practice

selfless selfish

unconsidered

not without urgency

every moment deciding

so calling to question

to light on

little dinosaur

so wordily wordless

fleet

dizzy with to watch

generic

in birdiness

all up

later we will envisage laughter

for another crowd

and knowing without thinking

how we mainly get about

this same long lovely day

where everything is first imagined

has to be, how else?

this now the bird

out of the box

then like a cat

mouth full of feathers

garden all mine

I bring you

the bird
