time for each gate to stop minding the fences
and get on with it

unhinge yourself
holding breath
to hold a child
to be a father
is to balloon
absorbing all
long time enough
to accumulate meaningful dust

wits, webs, and whetted mind tongues
startling news of an egg
fertilized
happy frightening
ready or not here i come
l'orso polare c'e
artigli nella terra
chissa' se
si scioglierebbe
senti

api
cellule

colonie
polmoni

perdono
ansimiamo
bees cells
colony lungs
buzz breathing
heaving life

disappearing, a loss of breath
