Distanced and made strange,
this imposition cloistered
climbs into art that is
made at every moment.
A semantic rotation -
words, sentences,
women, men,
flattened forms rise and ripple,
then fall away;
depart into metaphor.
A kernel of meaning
crumbles
and is drug through poetry:
In a bracketed zone
I stand –
lone
word woman.
a complete contemplation.
