Indra’s Lullaby


rowing the maria, sea of clouds : : storming, drifting shapes

mare anguis, serpent sea : : every heading molten

a labyrinth map : : walks through a flaming hoop

unknowing is : : where to look : : mare ingenii

sea of cleverness : : not that a knot holds it

touching here : : mare marginis

sea of the edge : : lithia water

lacus somniorum : : mind the wax lilies

as I mend the torn net : : a silvery structure
