the history of forgetfulness … what did you say?
the going is silky.
landscape with hands.
 
children sing in snow caves. niigata prefecture. honshu. japan. 1956.
oh, the verbs sound constantly all around.
raise the focus slightly.
 
the myth of life on earth is a dream come true.
make the image of a god from wood that won’t rot.make the image of a god from wood that won’t rot.

when you came you knew nothing.
the spider’s web glistens like the down on a branch in the sun.
makes, grows within,swells,colours.
 
people have feet and mouths.
one can be moved to tears by one’s own thoughts.
need opens doors.
 
make the fear of god from mirrors and rope.
the magpies hop through the veranda door, eat the candle wax, steal everything.

the world is a white knuckle.
*the song transcribed by ear*.
*this file represents the father’s own interpretation*.
 
ah, there might be more to it.
oh, the above is both prayer and command.
to ask the dust:
 
the best things in life lie not in the act.
oh, do not feed the birds in flight.
to infect sentences allergic to one another.
