Why should I need

to explain you, perhaps

this is the right place for you

The mountains in this hard

clear vacancy are blue tin

edges, you appear

without prelude midway between

my eyes and the nearest trees,

your colours bright, your

outline flattened

suspended in the air with no more

reason for occurring

exactly here than this billboard,

this highway or that cloud.

At first I was given centuries

to wait in caves, in leather

tents, knowing you would never come back

Then it speeded up: only

several years between

the day you jangled off

into the mountains, and the day (it was

spring again) I rose from the embroidery

frame at the messenger’s entrance.
