I am here, inside

I am here, inside a night

that is not here and silent

in the blooming silence

of a stone and mine. I

am here to get dark

with the darkening of the crispy night

and blackened as of a cradle.

I am here and tie the hands over the knees,

the knees close to the heart,

inside the circle of the eyes

the moon circle until I get back to be a child.
