SUNDAY PRAYER, cxxxvii
time & time again,
see the ground as you walk over it
see the mountains in your mind
the dried up lightning in the sky
where has your bliss kissed off to
where does your perfect storm await you
in spinning crowds and speeding cars
and faroff trojan cactus stars i am i am
time & time again
do you ever get the notion
that the world revolves around those
that think the world revolves around them
from the blind mice to the eagle bald
the poetic justices of oswald
who played catch with death and won
a one-way ticket to the sun i am i am
but you're a birthday
deep with the dayshine
from dusk to moonbreak
the dust of keepsakes
time & time again, i am i am
