the air is stirring, though I can't see it in place of reason we've empty shelves passing pilgrims and hurried hikers a fountain following feet and faith I don't believe there can be a peak I don't believe I can try and mount a search I do not search for my belief I don't resign to believe in no endings. Eyes open, to build all the math Clouds parting, our feet find the path Plot the points / test the grace of each step fill the sky with our thoughts and struggles street past street til we find the void twisting boulevards lead to fuller dreams and east-euclidean fantasies I try to be careful I try and be cautious I will be safer than most of them But still things happen to mountain believers no malice, failing, or negligence to defend

Water pulsing past the shore Banks of knotted grass and winter’s branches Stand at point three seven four Take your measurements and log back on Find the system - the last input With position, angle, momentum meant to Describe this one place From up above . . . high above Stand at point three seven four Start the protocol the screen goes silent Put your faith in something more Science will describe the path beyond All the plans are unfolded - set on display The poet’s mathematics meant to Describe this one place Face the north and blow the horn Pave the coming of entire sadness Witness highest curtains torn Settle to the spot of lowest grade Push the stone up - with confidence In the rest, you will be rewarded by every Process we gain From up above . . . high above

A switch that breathes. Connector vines. Wires that till the soil. Solar cells. Wifi trees. Ciphered leaves. Corrupted files of seeds. The circuit stone.

Daylight - all patterns rise Take flight - planes fill the sky Wake bright - read this all in Rolled tight - unfold and begin Should we build it all On artificial hills That bend and slope and break Start slow - start from the ground Bowed low - lost into found Five stones - five little ones The high tones - of nine little lungs Should we build it all On artificial hills That bend and slope and break That amplify each subtle quake That seem to simply punctuate the wind Sticks and stones - a spine and a head An access road - all will be fed By afternoon - all are fed So we go : you with all the hammers and the nails The Current flows : me with all the maps of all the trails This I know : we can say a few things now When the paths collide When all the patterns Fuse and bleed together We must stop Sticks and stones - a spine and a head An access road - all will be fed By afternoon - all are fed

Still, solemn, and fair She needs this. We need this. Shadows growing their tails The stark breeze, the slow breeze. Run my language aground My intent fogs the windshield Sunny halo through clouds My eyes held by her eyes on the horizon a simple consequence to acting without thought Up ahead toward the bend I can see But I won’t say Fair, solid, and still. She needs this. But I need this. a simple consequence to thinking without heart grasping for every sin that I know can't be bought that I know can't be bought.... a sunset on defrost
