how
to leave a life behind
it doesn’t matter here
it doesn’t matter now
no truth to tell
but must have wished away
must have been told to here
thus far in my element
what is
we are
and you by
kiss yourself somewhere
be all I am
sufficient
stone
and faded also air
in all of a journey
and nowhere to go
so sleep
so wake till
still headfirst into
not a word in the orchard for light
beyond my bidding
not for us
not for me
to know
as far as stretch
and that’s the body
off on those legs again
the clock ticks nothing off
the heart until it goes
Not a word in the orchard for light.
