ReplyDeletebuoyed light shaping solstice
spacious refrain
"singing the body electric"
longing in pace of trace
what happens next will happen next
to you - textuate -
utter silence
drift across coldscape
paint breath and dance
slow and in visible
stir
crystalline
snow's descent
floating water -
listen in ice
blinking at syllable's
hush
nothing nothing nothing is something
blinks back
where am i
in words not my language
plain - that is to say -
sheets and slips
paging mnenosyne
riffle through loss
utterly
untranslateable
yet led to water now
the shadow side of wave
and glass
coracles.
d, extraordinary.

Your words, I read them aloud. You weave a complexity of language with the natural landscape and the drifting of the snow, which is water and ice, how amazingly you work with this imagery, with a rhythm that is musical and as delicate as a snowflake.
I am humbled. Thank you...
