The Child

The child spoke

as the man spoke

as the child spoke

to understand

each other’s

death.

The Eyes of a Child

First, the color,

then the comprehension

of a limitless love.

The eyes of a child

must surely touch.

Its color

Unknown comprehension

open to be shut

open to create.

Color, form, limitless eyes

of a limitless love.

The eyes of a child can touch

The eyes of a child can feel

The eyes of a child can be.

Do they know that we know?

Alone

I am alone

because of the street

and the faces.

I almost spoke to one

once.

Starting is difficult.

I am alone

and the street is long

and the faces

Can’t stop.

Shouldn’t follow it.

Now, I am really alone

Can’t stop.

Perhaps

if I walk backwards with the faces.
