The Philosophers And I Cannot Agree

they plough through forests of words and don't look back

relentlessly and the works banked up appear almost as snow

if only they were that alive and the wolfish words follow them

they are on the track the circular, ocular trails that lead them back now

to mountains of words when will it be enough and I want to say

though I dont know their language Lord God. in the stillness

where the stars are achingly silver 

I just want to see the flower called snowdrop holding one thawed

drop of rain. You don't have to explain anything to me.
