ayaladn

the best of silence
discourse thoughtless with a rock
splitting stratagems

whisper in an ear
words he never heard before
softer than a name

afar a homeland
who to the shift sands a kiss
returns three wishes

one summer soldier
into an August sunrise
the sky his own blue

artemis moonlight
aladdin’s lamp its rubbing
wonderland between

five seven five &
the middle way within us
roadless horizons

a long pause instance
persuasive verticity
over night an ease

upon still water’s
non-specializ’d character
near a percentile

of the rift axes
tempestuous dimension
immensity moors

circumspect an or
‘though a starless shore immerse
dawn beyond thereon

down by the seaside
remigrant oarless boaters
oddments as ballast

without wherewithal
no-one’s obligee ever
sufficient selah

over and over
utter a thunderous ah
the pharos ablaze
