waiting brother
waiting
at well
with eagles
stretching wings
sieges in hell

going
formidable force
of fluid
passes lips
praise tongue
immolating
on ice
far out
there

to pole
meridian
in mouth
clenching breath
then beating
it
free
it free
brother

albert's pulse'
remembering
sound
of slaves
steel
against skin

backs
bending
slow
vertebrae becomes viper
clunk
of chains
against
timber

ìnto barbed wire

detains
you cry
& kneel
far from sea
dance
deep
in
valley
with your horn

death
speaks her name
from surface
of hudson river
over
& over again
time
turns
against you
turning
skin

blind
broken
so little surrendered
in sickness's song

despair
danced élicate
weep
with wing
wind
you

above
burning
birds
endless echos
tune you taught
beautiful bellowing
better than speech
