people-rise 
a sun behind them 
not up yet 
each sudden, as from chrysalis 
with hardly an 'I'm here' 
and they forget the other world 
know the way already 
the flower
this loving glance for friends 
who can know what told them?
the people rise
they have been all-wishful
now from sleep 
     they conjure light 
day comes through curtains 
to the already risen 
it was as if breakfast called 
when cosy would have lain together 
each is a citizen of weather 
does one conduct 
or are they each their every way? 
in each other's?
the people rise 
all tremble at  
some bump into another, stay
and there are vanishings in 
some dream curls from each every day 
the people-rise a world embrace 
heard here 
should we watch
as from another world?
there ought to be a postcard of it 
on the brink of an idea 
you, in every song and dance 
could be the breeze begun 
a people rise 
mean nothing by it 
all the old is swept away 
they drift like continents 
so clouds around them come 
like capes
this one sun stares for the ant scatter of 
contending and out 
will such a tide dim?
sleep fells  
like a good intention 
then all fall to feed 
know by their secret signs 
longer that way 
tall with story 
often woken to the news 
from harmless 'in your dreams' they say 
world girdling 
all the one wave 
out and doing 
up and at 
it's all fine-tune here on in 
and world watch out 
too late! 
all wonders stand in them 
and often brush aside 
the people rise
observe! 
all heavenly bodies obey
