4932 .LOOK


LOOK
The arrival is designated as the remaining source - 
the cart which carried the freight has been parked.
And my fever is now subsiding once more.
-
I will never know what for : reading a current
magazine, I try to understand what passes for
poetry today  -  a sort of tawny doggerel I
can't pretend to overlook or get past.
-
Shadows are coloring again the oldest Indian brave
in the world. In front of St. Mark's  in the Bouwerie
he is viewing the swirl  -  the five thousand things in
a minute we do, as one, together, and blind.
-
The arrival is designated as the remaining source.
The cart which carried the freight has been parked.
