VII

–

sunlight was over

our mouths fears hearts lungs arms hopes feet hands

–

under us the unspeaking Mediterranean bluer

than we had imagined

a few cries drifting through

high air

a sail a fishing boat somebody an invisible spectator,

maybe certain nobodies laughing faintly

–

playing moving far below us

–

perhaps one villa caught like pieces

of a kite in the trees,here

and here reflecting

sunlight

(everywhere sunlight keen complete

silent

–

and everywhere you your kisses your flesh mind breathing

beside under around myself)

by and by

–

a fat colour reared itself against the sky and the sea

–

…finally your eyes knew

me,we smiled to each other,releasing lay,watching

(sprawling,in

grass upon a

cliff)what had been something

else carefully slowly fatally turning into ourselves…

–

while in the very middle of fire all

–

the world becoming bright and little melted.
