'to the other patterns, as over (drawn)'

wings, or
something close to hand

word centre
because nothing closes

the hand on
the fragile facings

face to face, appreciate shallows if taken
as water, or

wind moves
words, motivating the throat

in torsion of trees, or
space covered freely

in secret with
cold, shining

and sufficient resistance in form
something always said more

where this memory sings
rifting works

easy,
not to solve the light
