through the blinds I am able to see.
capable of vision, that curse.
i absorb the hands in the trees
and whispering images
that dwell in dark clouds.
laundry lines with scraps
of our bodily thoughts
out for observation.
do you see the patches
sewed by the naive?
thick golden corn
wraps inside my iris,
fields and prairies
sing inside my lungs.
the music inside your eyes
bleeds into me
and i can visualize
each longing note.
