Dream unfolded
From that corner you can see the house
Anchored to the dogs in the sun (dormant)
As if the river no longer had teeth
Absorbed in his thoughts
Silent as barked birch trees
Still floating in a volatile stillness
Once the war is lost, we have to hold on to the air
Write the laws in washed stone
Repeat the litany of saints (dormant)
Treating everything like there is no tomorrow
Again and again, and once again
Leave the wings against the wall
Hear the wind pass and carry the feathers
Rhyming river with house and living with the fish
Ignore others that you can't see
Sort moments by letters (dormant)
Repeat the last movements on the floor
Open your lips and let the sounds in
Sacrificing the goat and the gods (dormant)
Offer the blood turned into water.
