Gracious sun who flies
freewheeling
without weight
being weight
and light itself
Generous sun, who
with patient defence
has mechanised us
from the infinites
with infinites
with immense patience
Great sun here is my appeal;
It is not enough that you should set
do not be so humble!
Shine all day and beyond –
erase the night so I may
awake and fall sleeping
to your light through
the thick blinds in soft covers
in living blankets
of sublime furriness
These warm nights
which feel so odd, knowing
you are close
the air rings with tension
while the bins are emptied
with rhythmic trundling
Giant sun, please!
simply ride the horizon
like a carousel
bucking up and down
on the plastic horse of the hills
Your twilight is gold
I purchase lightness with
Oh gracious sun
