Tell me about clinging and I’ll speak to awareness—
we will try to not have precious things together.
Or unpack a tendency to associate which is none other
than the void excited over its own discoveries. Eventually

you can live more of the poetry that surprised you. So break
more hearts my teacher be there in now fly with birds don’t sit with the
world. Throw fear back to the gap and lash
it to the mainmast. Once more upon an evening tide.

Prophet do we need you?

Upon the open ocean they turn away no one .
And though you gave me a semblance of continuity,
leave me out of your cipher-lies. I was your parent child.
Your god sent beyond the moon. On deck tonight I heard a woman
speak all her words at once.

The place I came from was where she longed to be.
