Vol. 59 No. 2 1992 - page 264

Corroded by the undreamed
covered with footprints of sleepless wandering,
the breadland throws open the mountain of life.
From its crumbs
you knead anew our names -
with an eye
equal to yours
on each finger,
I feel them for
a place through which
to keep vigil for you,
the brilliant
hunger candle between my lips.
With their masts singing earthwards,
the wracks of heaven are sailing.
You sink your teeth
into their wooden hymns.
You are the pennant
resisting song
Pale filament of suns
over the gray- black wasteland.
A thought tree-high
is stretching to grasp the tone of their light: there are
songs yet to be sung beyond
man.
