Through a blue window
I am letting it go, light
having washed its feathers.
having washed its feathers.
The sky is a flat sheet
of water reflecting itself,
and when I face
of water reflecting itself,
and when I face
its immeasurable underside,
there’s nothing behind it.
Only a darkening space
there’s nothing behind it.
Only a darkening space
