I Can See the World Turning . . .




STANDING ON A HILL I can see the world turning
Spinning me round to face the sun
Pulling me forwards while taking me back
Into the thick of things that should need to be silenced
Into the thick of things that in hope went before

Into this cryptic silence, free of all censure . . .
That falls in pieces
Is the wealth of all the parts of the whole . . .
All gladly given away for the whole of the whole

In tiny clipped-winged clouds the quintessence of rags
Broken lines of brushed writing-clouds . . . colouring . . .
Needing no edges
Bearing no relation to the lines in the land below
Over which they flew, but when seen together
As I now, know, they can be
Are painting the beginning of my day in brightest sunrise!
Telling the pieces of Whole, till they are made whole
And a new day!
Then gathering and raining . . . in the utmost grey
To make, in these perfect examples of gems in vapour, 
Divisions and outlines to see them by!
Am I crazy, or what?
