The winter has fled
To the hollows of the fields
Biding its sweet time

The winter has fled
To the hollows of the fields
Biding its sweet time
Here come the clouds
Like ragged clockwork
Busting with trouble
Time is like water
Always yielding
Always winning
I dream of a child
Climbing a mountain
Which of them is me?
Deep, deeply buried, below seeing or knowing,
lie our secret selves. Thin filaments
of cognition and will alone connect us.
Who’s to say you are not the same as I?
Who can say what we are not?
When you strip meaning of language
what is left but volition?
What mute railing narratives strain
to form themselves?
