1.
Finally we walked here with you.
to the spine of the summer
to the littleness of the hydrangea that is in equipoise.
We stopped at the petit carre collar of the river
you passed me a Jerusalem artichoke finally
I walked to you whenever my shadow wants me to do
And I told you to listen. how deep I breathe - with you
Björk’s lips in approach - fleshy
do you hear the rustle that is eroding the boundary?
Incomplete. sound surpassed its figurative. the wind leaned
the nature does not work without sound acceleration - to its owner. Finally
Here they came to me with those. with their giant houses that are cankered by love with their moss needles. there is something like th. in the morass of the hollows. Jörk. Ba.
And I said listen it said shadow also the bull will be coming shortly
the rib encrusted crust and totem apple
2.
Finally both of us will make love with one of us
my stirring - I will call it a bull all along my verses
Incomplete. I got a broken needle in my spine finally
3.
Okay
