Izmir, Three O’Clock

Just ahead on the nearly empty street
two beggars, one of them with no legs,
carried on the other's back.
They stood—as an animal stands
on a midnight road, frozen in the headlights—
for a moment, then went on
crossing the street like schoolboys at play
while the myriad clocks
of the midday heat ticked in space.

Pentecost of the stones. And with crackling tongues...
The city weightless in the wide sweep of the midday hour.
A burial in seething light. The drum that drowns out
the pounding fists of trapped eternity.

The eagle swirls higher and higher over the sleepers.
Sleep, where the millwheel turns like thunder.
The stomping of a blindfolded horse.
The pounding fists of trapped eternity.

It’s getting dark in Huelva: sooty palm trees

The probing eye turns sunbeams into police batons.
And in the evening: the clamor from a party downstairs
shoots up through the floor like surreal flowers.

Across the plain. Darkness. The car seemed rooted in place.
An anti-bird shrieked in the starless void.
The albino sun hung above dark lakes hurled onto the plains.

Weather Scene

The October sea glints coldly
with its dorsal fin of mirages.

Nothing remains that remembers
the white dizziness of the regattas.

An amber glow over the village.
And all sounds in slow flight.

A dog's bark is a hieroglyph painted
in the air above the garden

where the yellow fruit outwits
the tree and lets itself fall.

The Man Who Woke to Singing Over the Rooftops

Morning, May rain. The city’s still as quiet
as a pasture hamlet. The streets are quiet. And
an airplane engine rumbles blue-green in the sky.—
The window’s open.

The dream in which the sleeper lies outstretched
becomes transparent. He moves, beginning
to grope around for attention’s instruments—
almost in space.

A tangle of black spruce
and smokey moonbeams.
Here’s the sunken cottage

Until the morning dew murmurs
and an old man opens—
with a shaky hand—
the window and lets out an owl.

And further down,
the new house stands steaming
with the laundry butterfly
flapping at the gable

December. Sweden is a hauled-up,
unrigged ship. Its masts stand sharp
against the twilight sky. And twilight lasts longer
than day—the road that leads here is rocky:
first light doesn’t arrive till noon
when winter’s colosseum rises,
lit up by surreal clouds. Then all at once
the white smoke lifts dizzily
from the villages. The clouds, high and unending.
The sea grubs at the sky-tree’s roots,
distracted, as if listening for something.
