Ocean if you were to give a measure a ferment a fruit	A
of your gifts and destructions into my hand	B
I would choose your far off repose your contour of steel	C
your vigilant spaces of air and darkness	D
and the power of your white tongue	E
that shatters and overthrows columns	F
breaking them down to your proper purity	G
	-
Not the final breaker heavy with brine	H
that thunders onshore and creates	I
the silence of sand that encircles the world	J
but the inner spaces of force	K
the naked power of the waters	L
the immoveable solitude brimming with lives	M
It is Time perhaps or the vessel filled	N
with all motion pure Oneness	D
that death cannot touch the visceral green	O
of consuming totality	G
	-
Only a salt kiss remains of the drowned arm	P
that lifts a spray a humid scent	Q
of the damp flower is left	R
from the bodies of men Your energies	S
form in a trickle that is not spent	Q
form in retreat into silence	T
	-
The falling wave	U
arch of identity shattering feathers	L
is only spume when it clears	V
and returns to its source unconsumed	Q
	-
Your whole force heads for its origin	W
The husks that your load threshes	V
are only the crushed plundered deliveries	V
that your act of abundance expelled	Q
all those that take life from your branches	V
	-
Your form extends beyond breakers	V
vibrant and rhythmic like the chest cloaking	X
a single being and its breathings	V
that lift into the content of light	Q
plains raised above waves	V
forming the naked surface of earth	Y
You fill your true self with your substance	V
You overflow curve with silence	V
	-
The vessel trembles with your salt and sweetness	V
the universal cavern of waters	V
and nothing is lost from you as it is	V
from the desolate crater or the bay of a hill	Z
those empty heights signs scars	V
guarding the wounded air	A2
	-
Your petals throbbing against the Earth	Y
trembling your submarine harvests	V
your menace thickening the smooth swell	B2
with pulsations and swarming of schools	V
and only the thread of the net raises	V
the dead lightning of fish scale	C2
one wounded millimetre in the space	V
of your crystal completeness	V
