Kit Kelen #735 - stochastic (ekphrastic for the field guide)

735

stochastic

ekphrastic, after Brian Blanchflower's 'Canopy XXVII'

for the field guide to Australian clouds

the cloud inside is spotted

like the creature folds to be

colour flung

stars catch

it's mist

a cloud composed of itself

and drifts

all in its being

which is where it was not

it is a tussle of light

to seem

and catches

by the sun

none tend

but all cloud is

is somehow let

and leans

to round

this world
