Notes
"
But not
rocked not cradled not forgetful:
there are no
sunken kingdoms no
edens in the waste ocean
among the shattered
memories of battles
only the cold jewelled symmetries
of the voracious eater
the voracious eaten
the dream creatures that glow
sulphurous in darkness or
flash like neurons
are blind, insatiable, all
gaping jaws and famine
and here
to be aware is
to know total
fear.
