Poems
The Cold of Poetry
Myopia
green grass – apparently
green – it has imperfect tension
I can blank my mind
only incompletely for visible life
thoughtless solidarity – that picture of postlife
and thoughtless solitude as a picture of this one
transcendence is as flat as paint on space
( Lyn Hejinian. The Cold of Poetry. Los Angeles: Sun & Moon, 1994. 87-88.)
