The Clearness of Necessity
May 13, 2020
World, World, in being, bobbling
Clear as a clear acoustic swing-bell ringing
Banggg - on a clapper all of gold
Fast as a clasp impossible to fasten, prise undone
A deer with a speckled ear showing through a forest run
Knowing it there because the stare imbues the substance
Globe, Globe, moon-towing bulge
Stirs like a dirge, reserves the heart to wonder
To rock and gas a Charitas set light to, going,
In the minute so fine, and the long haul caterwaul of spiral time
An undergirth of depth in plenty earth to mine
Fevered nevers don’t insist, exist, here
Widening branches climb
Small birds of the woods continue knocking
On the wood their pecking
Non-mystified, no why and wherefore, care for checking
Where that might lead, to a protoplasmic dead-end
An actual prima facie speculative composition
Day labour and a venture of investment, faith retained
A covenant inheres puts footsteps on the stairs two-ways
The sight and the sound of, the sights and the sounds of love
Upward assents perform downpayment acceptation
The coin of the ear, the currency of the radial eye
And the flights of clouds of sounding birds air spilling over
On the tops of heads whose neighbour is sister, brother
Adjured by The Living God, to live, give love to one another
