Poems 1959-2009 (2009)
“Begins to smaller Than the last.
Dimensions Do not yet exist.
My friend, the darkness Into which the seed Of all eleven dimensions Is planted is small.
Travel with me back Before it grows to more.
The church bell bongs, Which means it must be noon.
Some are playing hopscotch Or skipping rope during recess, And some are swinging on swings, And seesaws are seesawing.
That she is shy, Which means it must be May, Turns into virgin snow And walking mittened home with laughing friends.
And the small ...birds singing, And the sudden silence, And the curtains billow, And the spring thunder will follow— And the rush of freshness, And the epileptic fit that foams.
The universe does not exist Before it does.
2. MIRROR FULL OF STARS A can of shaving cream inflates A ping-pong ball of lather, Thick, hot, smaller than an atom, soon The size of the world.
This does take time to happen.
Back at the start Again, a pinprick swells so violently It shoots out Hallways to other worlds, But keeps expanding Till it is all There is.MoreLess
