Never the Word Here Only the Sound


To stretch out now among your reading lamps
To feel things no longer the equal of your water
Seventy years north of here or somewhere just
Like that sometime sweet and screaming inside
My chest when you sweep this empty room
Clean of all its feathers when you say adore
My choices and abhor me take the sugary treat
Have the surgery charged with splicing day 
To day you say you're the magician and any
Number of others under a sweeping bridge
A wonder of Victorian engineering you say
All morning aquiver at your call O look dear
I say see the field of syllables blindly dancing
See the curious moments fresh and green
