No Home in Words
no name, no grave, no home
the nameless sung by the nameless
and add to that no sound
silent, but loud
no name, no grave, no home
the nameless sung by the nameless
and add to that no sound
silent, but loud
the idea is like a boat sliding by
read pearls, beginning to roll
internal cries of cliffs beginning to resemble the sea
the grass of passion decreases
on the basis of us, decreases
wordless, but not quite silent
unless to say love, unless not to speak
—there is leftover gunpowder in this line
becoming a simplified beginning
poetry is a sky giving this its performance
