rice

by Shawn

  

when there is much room and there is rain and a morning which breaks
        the darkness touching the body which breaks the darkness
        but sometimes even in much room and rain the darkness will
not be broken and the touch becomes the darkness of morning

when there is much room and rain and when we touch
        the doorframe as we enter
the house which breaks the ground but sometimes the ground will
        not be broken even as we hang in the doorway even                      
        entering with the lightness of much room and rain if
the green ground will not be broken we will

brush and become the ground
and then after much room and rain
when we move to hang a fresh window on the wall but sometimes

the wall will not be broken will not be touched and not be green
then even so open our arms raised in much room rain and morning
we become the wall
