Slow Movements

The clouds

look like words

and their movement

mirrors

the tectonic grind

of Antarctica

or Moby Dick-

something

frosted glass

polar leviathan


O


Saw this

and dared

to talk about it

did the clouds

look like words

or did they

look like script

some time

you will see shapes

spectral colors

or the Great Whale

gliding across the sky

impassive

prophetic

as all men who ever

spoke with God


O


Once I saw

malformed planets

too thin to stand on
