The Bird's Eye View
Watch this space:
an indefinite particle
packed as a can of anthrax.
Scrunched up,
there's something godless
in its unpopped pod.
Lies in its membrane,
awaiting infinity.
Which will arrive with Stealth,
an amputated clap,
and the stepmother of echoes.
Blake's universe in a grain of sand:
in the eye of the Tigris.
[February 1998],
