emergency VII

 

 

planet emerges
silk and rock
orbits interior spaces
and the fear of

 

first tracks smaller each time
reciprocal orbits
the desire to keep the sand clean
reflection of each thing

 

ellipse his circle
leap his mystery
time his weight

 

his garden his galaxy
his dream his nervous system
his grass his there

 

 


Translated by Curtis Bauer
“emergency” is from Temperatura voz [Voice Temperature] (Barcelona, Pre-Textos, 2010).
