Understand Then
November 1, 2020
understand then, bundle of shallow dawns
that your motion is faster than mine
your thought more speedy, with precisions I only once dreamed
repercussive in allusion, stilled behind that haberdasher ��s fist
twisel ��d leathern decanter wit slit wild of hallow ��d draws
in allies tursst paths then, wend simple notion
woulds ��t need surmise, o summer ��s delight
horizon ��s finest plight might arrowed lift
in flight be split, one word �� metronome �� unbecoming
understand then, gathering of sparrow ��d lawns
that your devotion is clearer than mine
your gods more reedy, incantations I once only glinted
exculpated rose by perilous pickling, nicking nose
lay hand to my lip left untended lest slip
one chord, that thy lords �� and ladies �� stately
woulds ��t need revise, oh plumber of insight
murmuration ��s twilight sifting, with aught of night
sedge-cut and hawthorn �� water horse �� belabored
that of life, one word lifts fire, and one lived
entire �� might gain a second word, retire
claiming well replete to hibernation
choir unto sword, wire wrapped pommel
bridle cast burning, scored in reformation
whole handed then, ambi-dexter
that our alliance be unstartled silence
where husband-spoken hoarse
stored in language un-yearning
a meadow ��s night ��s turning
swell-flit to churning
that thy palm be soft pressing, and sure of its grip
lest one word to bring mourning, another aborning
release causal script forming thousand-un-thousand
where bands reset casket, and casement, and coffer
n-hands high to the withers, soft light ever-forming
ally not repleted
lest punched through my throat
come sparrow ��s glass ��d feathers
one, and two, and lives far too many
in language un-counting
thousand-un-thousand
understand then
tearsed let be �� one word was nothing
where poured language to sea
neither saddle nor traces
return to thee
