Poems

I BEND THE BENDING

I BEND THE BENDING

 

I bend the bending

Turn the turnstile

Throw the rosette away

The horse that stands in the field

The gulls that fight over a maggot

The air bitten by the chaffinch

The Kuko that kills the young

The wren that squeals on intruders

The crows that chase the seagull

The crane that finds its spot in silence

 

Mind that roared, screeched, and pounded

Ran in all directions is still

The water that saw my father’s image

The roadway where he walked

I pass this way

Not threatened by the magpie
