Matter of Seeing
I came into the world
I saw it
I cannot forget
it
From nowhere to somewhere
I saw it
Was it there
before I saw it
I saw it
When I saw it
it was there
I cannot forget
that I saw it
did see it
saw it
it was seen
but I saw it it
I saw it
I
Time Time Time
Its dials hand broken
the face of the clock still stares
up at the sky
in silence
I have built walls
symmetrical
boundary walls
more for myself
than neighbours
Thistles sprout
ivy
common ivy
covers all
sheltering
teeming woodlice
devouring all
in the moist
& in the dark
Crows feet
hairs in nostrils
in ears
the skin pocked & marled
the mouth an empty pot
eyes dim
glaucous
I wouldnt blame them
