COSMOS
I work the world
the world works it
on me
and with mere words
I chip at it
and all the world
wordless…
chips back at me
yet for respite
I lie down now and now
to contemplate
all that I’ve wrought
on it in me
because it is
just what it seems
but never quite
as if at playing
only I can hide
and seek
and find
the game
the place
to name
to be
