breathe
live forever
fly past Pluto
on moulting wings
the habit of death
overcome
build a city inside
a hair
shrink the world to
fit
even eternity is a
lamp
that turns on and
off
an ormolu clock
a retro time machine
it is not the gold
but the gleam
not the breath
but the dream
not the life
but the reliving *
this year, I am
yearning for
success,
a revolutionary
waiting for
promotion
play another game
of chess,
fuse molecules of
water,
make
a bridge across the ocean
all nouns are really
verbs,
whoever that
disturbs
play another game
of chess,
fuse molecules of
water,
make a bridge
across the ocean
poetry is a petal
landing in a canyon
floating on the
river
that dug its new
companion
play another game
of chess,
fuse molecules of
hydrogen,
make a bridge
across the cosmos
love the ironies at work here
