The sun burns my face
tender on midwinter morn
a finger through a flame

this prick I pricked you
with, it sticks

i fall on my knees
before this wasteland of words,
the books abandoned

to basement junk shops,
aligned on splintered shelving
ordered in chaos:

orientalists
and philosophers unread
(unread as undone,

the pages gone blank
the letters turned back to white,
white on white thought-blight).

Yet still I write,
a pliable sight.

the burning jewel
glows beneath the icy lake
