Dragon

There is a veil between me

and the bottomless sky.

Cloud or a sheet billowing,

the edge of my mind.Standing on the street

in the rain,

(unnamed and unknown)

only sound,

assuming nothing.

Seeing the echoing shape

of the mammoth that tore

through the brush here

(A tractor idling

two blocks away

in the fog, unseen.)

and the dragon that roars now.

For all I know,

lost in the weather.

Petals blow. Is this a river?

In a palace of water

nothing is familiar

and the ground always shakes.

I dive into

a pool of uncertainty.Going into the basement again,

I reach down

beneath the human.
