I tried to learn the Chinese of boundaries
and inner snows.
the landscapes where the peach skies
recede.
it makes your fingers bleed to weave the nettles
Elise was told in that dream about the swans
the harder side of once upons
someone who knows better interposd
that's the song in another key.
his daughter, for a rose.
the ships wrecked;coming home.
transposed,why can't I keep it straight
when I'm up studying late
the way the lamplight drains
the meteors from the skies.
too hard to analyze
the myth that flies with
the wind
each time that I pretend
I know
how the story goes.
