Even the technological Lemuria
I lived a couple of thousands of years...

Pilgrims to different sites in accord with season’s cry 
Exactly on the same flyway for ages they fly;
Bar-headed Geese in flight dwell in sky infinite
They live in central...

To rouse me like a nymph 
Placing the tip of my lips 
At the soft ear lobes...

I've almost forgotten it.
It got too big -
holes appeared,
entire towns fell through
my memory.

The Forbidden City
is a convoluted red and gold ribbon,
my mind cannot now untangle.
Images float off the ink
of curling maps.
Snapshots flutter
like flags in a...

As a maze of fibers brushed grains and frames of matted faces
I see mountains and plains and valleys
I'm inspired I image
These things

Whitman, Frost, Thoreau,

Reading fridge magnets; surprised how interesting,
the world is when stamped into rubber decals.

Rome, Ankara, both Buda and Pest.
Watching a colorful rolling diorama,
pictographs tumbling over a flat white-scape.
Images recalling airport loudspeakers,
beeping taxi cabs and swaying camels.

Where they poisoned the peach tree.

Some of our words
were overheard in Mongolia
carried upon tundra winds.
