AS IS
AS IS
mountain tired
of its human name
throws off the words
like so much
tattered clothes
walks naked
into a sunset
becoming its own
"I am"
rain too
pays no attention to
the human sounds
reinvents itself
every time it falls
"I the ever becoming!"
the sky laughs
as words stuck upon it
fall off
"I the great un-nameable!"
pinned down
by a puny words
the moon disdains
all attempts to trap
her in human language
she
"the great she
who is"
who do these
humans
think they are
humans gasp
as the map
unfolds
the mountain has left
of its own accord
the rain falls no more
and the sky
doesn't even
want to know
the map now
a blank
piece pf paper
