such an Eros? such a home?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

it tumbles, reckless, humus of earth<\/div>\n
the woods, brilliant steam of night<\/div>\n
the smoke, we name the smoke the surface of the sea<\/div>\n
who wallows in the vault?<\/div>\n
who supports the hunger of the sky?<\/div>\n
where will we put earrings, young lieutenants,<\/div>\n
weary sailors?<\/div>\n
as if the light itself would show us how to pluck an apple<\/div>\n
how to smell it, predatory beast<\/div>\n
how ink pencils, ice of mirrors<\/div>\n
from the hand descend clouds, who seduces fire in the night?<\/div>\n
who knows about loam, about weather? who knows how to feed the stove?<\/div>\n
herd of hungry mercenary minds<\/div>\n
pesky habits, lazy muzzles<\/div>\n
Thoth\u2019s work coupled common flowerbeds<\/div>\n
steam! steam moves souls! textiles!<\/div>\n
breaking hiddens slide<\/div>\n
monkeys are hungry, runners are hungry<\/div>\n
gifts lick straps, the principle trembles<\/div>\n
lying down, I will rake fishes, dry colour of crumbs<\/div>\n
fencers, baroque stuntmen, huts of mouth<\/div>\n
look at loosened world bonds, drunken crickets<\/div>\n
buckskin pokes, terrible children<\/div>\n
there is bustle in the orbits, rot in mobile fish<\/div>\n
break-neck in the height of eagles<\/div>\n
wrappers, rivers of angels, raspberries pierced<\/div>\n
on earth we do not file flames, we do not foresee God\u2019s temples<\/div>\n
we do not turn up our palms<\/div>\n
on earth we tremble, destroy waters, nourish smoke<\/div>\n
in the dark we lay hands on the hunger of the sun<\/p>\n
