Dan Thomas-Glass

After Taylor's "Another Meditation At the Same Time"
and a Conversation w/ Dris for O & V


By candlelight some wkend mourn
time begins to slip like a sleeping bag
unzipped in the jangle of a fertile purse thrown
to this material earth spilling words for all
its worth still told to count from nothing forward.
O that I could be anything but a sign for God.
