2001 7


it speaks

I am gold

you who are

small are a sliver of the great
ruby band
of god

he wore it once
and left it hanging upon the rim of Jupiter

oh galaxy
of lovemaking harmony
space drift

it is it is
the end

you can hear them speaking to you

it is the end
you can
hear a man wallow across a small
place of habitat
for all the gold in the universe a
lover came and was
had and was beset by the oh
oh wonderful
wonderful



...and here is the start of the second set of seven poems





2001 part 2 1


blink and you will
be another
particle

born of blackholes

my god
says

it is imperative now
for us
to water
dance
across the face of the planet

and hiss
hiss

the light of grace fallen into our
hands makes us
complete
and
chaos

chaos is the truth of my name
