CONCENTRIC HORSES


Four concentric horses.

Two running, two curled up in clover,

dead or only sleeping in the clover.

They won't be separated out:

no unbroken mind

from anywhere may ride them.

They will have no secrets.

 

If we looked long enough at them

our secrets too

would soon become laughable.

 

Impossible flower of horses.
