I’m back at my desk—-
the papers, cookies, coffee—-
after our visit.
The book opens to
‘the laws of free fall’ (Hugo
Ball). You interrupt.
Your transparencies
free from your depths rare colors
communicating
your truth to the sky
in gentle shallow waves. I
felt included, o-
verwhelmed. Silly me.
I will come back. Now I feel
a little sheepish.
