east: towers needles curses sleeping beauty up or down element: air

&
to the tower
a needle to sew all eyes to this
a doorway between
two skins
two landscapes
two languages

one to dream for
one to gather round her shoulders while sleeping (mired)

all fine lines stoney parameters open fields and sneak woods are swept to this point
spoke on the bleary horizon
all eyes on this silver announcement

the sky crackles with some spat jealousies
the usual frequencies are full black wings
weep & fiasco of much news
and hours brooding sight sucked to incinerator chimney & such
the sky crackles with cricket trickery
left to brood in the valley
the forest grows and grows
lightning & the laughter licked clean from sleeping castle

between the sky and this heavy haul of hill
this down heel path
an effervescent spiral
the hooked blue space lunged into
a magnificent & unravelling jumper

we can not see anything
& so are invisibly spun to sleep safely in a narcotic blue
slung clear of cloud & all accusations

a small green plane nerves the green world
kites dither above rusting gorse
the grass shivers
and silence from the bone chorus those verdant ferns

on the hillside
strewn with soft grass and starry white flowers
while sleep occurs
her tower sailed away
all channels shutting down now

some would-be rescuers left stumbling thro the wood
bickering over rights of way and public access
lost the path their princliness long since doved it south

beauty begins this broadcast
I do not know the names of all these birds
