as the eagle soars into the sun
it forgets icarus;
as it rises above the landfill
it forgets dirt and graves;
what will it remember, will it see
the ground in that last moment?

her pawn’s precision
his knight’s reckless encounter
nobody gets board

i built no edifice;
no memory remains
so why should any winter
wipe my footprints clean?

sit here in the shape
of water and of fire
who am i am i
neurotic would be
thinking insane but you know
that i am really
psychotic would be
i think i am i know i
but you know i’m not
stand here in the shape
of earth and air adamant
you think you are sane?

all flesh is as light
two thousand golden apples
are a memory
a cross encircled
did the unremembered laugh
celtic to the last?
grey flowers display
masons bow beneath the sky
that their hammers wrought
shield ringed with fire
eight gates pierced with light above
what rough beast was made?
pilgrimage ends here
the century’s weary hands
play a nave of swords
old stone holds old air
a thousand years of sainthood
stained glass, empty vaults
shielded from the sky
this sanctity will survive
the meaning of god

gritty in the box
more friendly than tobacco
steam arouses it

exchanging flowers
crimson in the yellow flame
we buried many
