Requiem

Requiem

If it comes through the window   the music’s bad
arrange the mirrors yourself   in mind’s gristle
for a door in   its serious business   of making something
up   a city   they walk in   called music
you always knew their names   my shadow of shadows you
Plotinus wasn’t sure what   magic is   but it happens
between two people   who know the same thing   surrendering
their branches their trees   the squirrels fly
through empty dawn   its busy hands our hands
push the border they are   please just read the stupid poem
the angel cried   a stone   a phone   a bone  whatever you see
you’re all that matter   hyle matters   now drift across the eye
that pours   a bell to meet the thick light   calling us awake.
