Go! Tell it On the Mountains


 

lest we orbit

Weyekin's bode

amidst the fire

of our obsessions,

 

recherche ciphers

within wet ashes,

charcoal forests'

rows of Cedars'

sons and daughters

 

on clear-cut mountain's

point of view

die against arbitrage

of paper plates...

 

still        we        prey ...
