Leaf-Litter on Rock Face

Things are not

unmoving (or else what

is inging for?). These things

once-living

drift toward the stone

more movingly for any human glance

that passes over them. The wind

wells up to spill a trail

of onces off the nevers,

take opaqueness from an eye

to mind, or near it.

Every rocking

takes some leaving

to a stonish spirit.
