Ontology / water condensing

original poetry

water condensing


A piece taken
                          in hand
in vain
             in majesty
to raze
   the temples
and make
                   straight places
crooked
                and whorls
into lines.
        lines of rain
    ungraspablehumid
a piece of air taken
in glory
                hyperfilial
                   magnificence
to unlock
the boxes of travesty
                 to build
 all the boxes
people huddle in,
turn everything out
   into the dank street
for a morning of grief

Ontology

    Taciturn accomplice
of motes,
turns of phrase,
and brief perishments:
                  I reach out
             a hand of dust,
   retract it
as a single drop
                      flourishes
        in my palm.
