BLACK breathing BLACK at the window
Simultaneous
The interior eye Opposite watching's touch
In what is black white
Is by accident The eye detaches
As it slips from itself
What is black Like sky
In its scream Glassed
Spins In a straight line
Draws along In a spiral
Explodes
Isn't it your dream to be visible?
A luster spins Atop another
Grows In buds
Pierces
The change of season comes
In clarities Lifts
Airborne High and low
Like the light In our touch
Angelizes
Burnished
The dark light that skies in whites
And in prayer the refrain repeats
Between nude walls Hangs
Window against the emanation: Open
