childish mountain
mountain of children
meaning,
a river
rich vein
suburb turning
the city inside out
light foreshadows
black fur,
from which children decipher
before language from
what won’t –
even sound becomes
heavy as i learn
you (repetitive
motion) as i know
us, coiled being
concentrically living
the spoiled small
petals uncolor
the valley in between
two mountains
bicycle in a tree
pasted two things that don’t belong
together,
are you –
