as an earthworm touched
by a twig, a string curling
wildly to refuse the knot.
raw and sensate, dotted
with bits of soil like ellipses
of motion.
the same light's kept on in
the darkened ends of its
tunnel.
as your own.
a pulse in the earth, enriched
by a blackness that contains
immovability.
to surface therefrom, putting
the best of nakedness to shame--
streaming the gravity of
enlightening experiences.
turned continually over, as
if to freefall to the sky.
