The Mudman

I'm going to form a mudman and then
I'll wake him up
Time doesn't hold the mudman a friend
time breaks him down
I shaped his life
with my hands
but now
I see he won't last forever
he's only mud up from the river
his bones won't keep together
they're not so hard - sticks from that river
why animate the mudman?
why wake him up?
I know I'm just a mudman like he is
I'm breaking down
both melt into the water again
both must dissolve

moonrise
mercifully again
revive that which waits in silence
to speak in prayer
stars shine
how like you I am
a mere mote of light in darkness
when day has fled
distant planets I'll never know
perceive me as the tiniest glow
that alone's no reason to be
no need for what illuminates me
cool night
come claim me as one
bestill now this restless murmur
of will defiant
speak now
unveil your true face
preserve me from useless burning
alone in space
distant planets I'll never know
perceive me as the tiniest glow
that alone's no reason to be
no need for what illuminates me
midnight
peace steals over me
the din of the frogs and insects
puts me at ease
visions
come to me again
remind me that pregnant darkness
is never at rest
distant planets I'll never know
perceive me as the tiniest glow
be that as it is I can't forget
those which have not taken form yet
small hours
of expectancy
beget an exhilaration
for what could be
dew forms
a blessed respite
slaking thirsts of those who called out
in the live of the night
distant planets I'll never know
perceive me as the tiniest glow
be that as it is I can't forget
those which have not taken form yet
