The listening apparatus
Is silent –
Ahead of sound –
Your eyes gush
Like awakened
Blake.
about
Name: Tiyasha From: kolkata, west bengal, India About me: What would I be saying
If I said, ‘The sky is true’?
Would the dream pass more slowly
If I lowered my voice, bassooned my vowels?
No end to wonder, I find,
And the evening mist is still.
I talk in allegory when I speak to myself.
I walk up the hill – my spirits rise.
The process ‘saying’ again
Is always about itself, about something
Other than its content
Its statement and assertion.
I reach with every word
For the truth of what I find—
I miss and then I say something else.
The reader, myself included,
Gets only the altered after-saying.
Where is the sky in all this--?
The measure wavers – the link is broken –
Disturbed, a trial of what is,
Wanders, palpitates, grows worn
In its youth—
Like a design by William Morris
Or brothel in Joyce’s arcane language.

the holy stripper
Knowing love, I can allow all things to come and go, to be as supple as the wind and to face all things with great courage.My heart is a open as the sky
