I hear dark sea saying things

I hear dark sea saying things
that soon will be yesterday
I see sky brandish new ways
like there is no past no future

if walking in sun or rain
one must keep moving
that is a secret trees withhold
in time slower than man

the last straw summer spent
is a teardrop in a torrent
daring the frailest of hopes
in a black Kali necklace

there is no mahadevi just clouds
women giving birth
day after thousands of years
bleeding all over brevity

daring day to continue
is such a sweet folly
Mary never cared much
for lambs or boys without bikes

sternum fortified for breathing
ribs falling into center place
it is still soft summer
I am still a fool

No you are not. Your work always has so much vivacity. It has been a long time since I read vedic literature and you brought it back to mind.

Very diverse. Like the references of Kali and Mahadevi and Mary. Very vivid images albeit disjointed.
