theory says we see them perfectly take it or take
some pills pockets full of blood and bones misprision's
holiness license's script illegible
stamped-seal blues and yellows deep as stained glass
even in enemies' eyes bless all sentences
they escape bless all paragraphs elsewhere they exist
one phrase pair smoke held taken deep into lungs what does
all mean breakfast coffee grits their expectations were not
high can quit cold whenever black river at city's edge
so park out behind wear scarf compose life wages of stopping
weeping so long for been and done writing will grope
its way then will be there to meet it we leave from here to here
this child often feverish on the way to clinic
future does not entirely build itself also is
unrepentant over the riven and through
the words all earlier inks still having not
dried or breaking into chilled speeding clarity
would sleep and never remember middle distance
place must carry weight whatever courses through
onward light snapped on off whole city's ponderable spook
accumulating its long wait for nothing to end
invention of shadows radiant horizons
glance only way at Blake's tree urgency of objects
red house over yonder and the blue of night
