-
After joy raises you into the stratosphere,
-
with long hind legs for jumping
-
They say time goes backward
-
waiting to be driven forth. I pound
-
like a horse held in the palm of a rock,
-
untransfigured even by hope. Understand I was the one
-
And thus, without a Wing
-
“these had transmuted
-
It is true I am as twisted as the cactus
-
Some kind of extra firmament,
