PIERROT
Under the bridge there arestones growing
smooth with the
slippage of water and the
smear campaign of silt.
The moon floats
closer
and closer,
trawling below the bridge.
Is it time
or a limpid ripple
of maize-silk swimming?
And while we look awayor a limpid ripple
of maize-silk swimming?
she glides under
to the other side.
Light.
