wait under the weed

The Tipping Point
Let the snake wait under
his weed
and the writing
be of words, slow and quick, sharp
to strike, quiet to wait,
sleepless.

—through metaphor to reconcile
the people and the stones.
Compose. (No ideas
but in things) Invent!
Saxifrage is my flower that splits
the rocks.


"A Sort Of Song," William Carlos Williams

[Damen Avenue below Lee Street]
