Flowing out and through— My pond brain. Mercenary of crystal, Hesitant sleep in the bosom. Ozonated dream on the eaves. Warrior of bliss.* . *Full imperceptible, I discover myself— In cloudless static, In the biting cold. Frenzy of elaboration, Frost that bathes my pineal. A graze, a radiant knife: Dark tangerine skyslice.* . **Step after step. Slope upon slope. Ache under ache, I unembroil myself. I unencumber something. I unelongate the symbols.** . **It snows not, it shines not; Everything is a vain transparency. And yet, I feel in the loft insensible The stirring unmistakable, Of what I do not know.** ___ ![forest-2424134_1920.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmS1wXEFAsvapb2SptbJJ2MZuFSREfZb3qfM3zLrQEci9P/forest-2424134_1920.jpg) ___ ![simatai-1723124_1920 (1).jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmdEwbyBm7cWpctV3fuohTzjw7Az4wteTH1vKCYsenK38m/simatai-1723124_1920%20(1).jpg)![simatai-1723124_1920 (4).jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZ363KLw47A72hUiAmi51hbGH2GQKLoRLjrg92kQpq1xv/simatai-1723124_1920%20(4).jpg)
