Unbound from These Solid Realities
Unbound from These Solid Realities
Unbound from all these solid realities from your stationary lucidity
through you through the entire middle of forgetting through dresses that kiss with
the lightest satiety through your empty suitcases with fire through
the wooden edge of the eye I was absent and the bridges tightened beneath you
you were absent and the plants still saw me the plants that had avoided the plain in
Their unprecedented herbivore satiety the plants that caressed the statues and strangled
the passersby kissing their feet or gluing their hair these passersby
dressed like glasses with stone these passersby like shields I
found you in mirrors in the middle of ice where the noise was narrower more unclear
I found you nowhere I found you in the most superficial fire I found you in the
Most scattered and most uncertain day I found you passive with spinal column in straight
line with bones concentrated in the most obvious center I found you like a cat
like a lamb I found you on a single face in a single stillness in desert among
the single statue after the whitest vestments or in nature in aquariums among
swans I found you like a hand like an angel I found you standing with the gentlest speed
With fingers extinguished protecting my nape protecting my granite chest protecting my
throat I found you meditating on a floor or in a tunnel I found you in the bones
of any foot in any flesh in any stone I found you between drops of
lava between elephants with my lucid sheep helmet unbound from these solid
realities from your lucid stationarity through you I was absent and the bridges tightened
Beneath you you were absent and the plants still saw me in their unprecedented
herbivore satiety strangling passersby dressed like glasses with stone like
shields I found you nowhere in the superficial fire in the most scattered day passive
with column in straight line like a cat like a lamb on one face in stillness among
the single statue after the white vestments in nature among swans like a hand like an
Angel standing with gentle speed with fingers tight protecting my nape the granite chest
the throat meditating on floor in tunnel in the bones of the foot in flesh in stone
between drops of lava between elephants with my lucid sheep helmet I found you
everywhere I found you in the most withdrawn silence more obscure I found you nonstop
with column in straight line with bones concentrated in the obvious center like a cat
