The Consummation of All Things
1. Just as the desert’s suncup
on the sill must contend
to never drink the morning dew,
you, too, must contend
to never touch your own disguise.
2. The pit must never
consummate with its own
peach. It is unnatural as
an itch that disappears.
3. Thinking the moon is shaped
as a brass sickle sword
is indicative of a terrible fever.
Seek help from someone foolish
and unafraid to claim the moon is
white, even whilst it is listening.
Origin of Memory
The ocean believes
it was born from the first rainfall.
But the cicada thinks
it appeared when the forest
learned to echo.
The mushroom accuses the vulture,
likewise the vulture blames the mushroom.
The the eager honey bee
does not believe in memory.
The Scientists do not know what
to believe, watching the mouth
of ancient repetition.
Rise fantastic re-creation!
Hewn and flung from
the mother gum, you are
the secondborn atom.
