AND NOW advice for the insignificantA Poem by ThurstonPrepare to find outPREPARE lie down to look at kites (expansively poised ever ahead of the whooping hobbyist gaping with nets) -- rest assured of gravity-- (but shrunk to the giant boy of lumbering worlds slendering away -- remote wish -- tugging at his head) TO FIND -- solitary yacht -- a pure devotion floating deeper than streets through all the quiet pipes but paper boats and kites come back like maps travelled tails of print and pert mother-folded sails structures of miracle and faith threatening to unravel keep them away with string stay and tensely hold OUT fingers vigorous with news. © 2010 Thurston |
