"Wonder"
Wonders of
the word
can be
deadly

One can
wonder
in a chasm
wonder
of what
but never
do
and wonder
if
they can
but only
wonder

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

If a wind
a zephyr
capture the
frail leaves
they never
touch the
home
never
become their
life
only elongate
a wonder,
a wonder
of
nirvana

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

Wind can
brandish
can whip
and flog
but
it can
suffocate
and the
wind
doesn't hesitate
to do
such
things

Wonder of
the word
can be
deadly

Then the
wind
tiers of
the leaves
to only
dispatch them
not in
home
but in
a sordid
pond
that is
somber
without wonder
but urges
urges to
breach its
boundaries
urges to
harbor life
urges to
smile
urges to
live
but a
crumbled leaf
only lands
on its
urges
and ripples
its
surface
and distorts
the
urges

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

The leaf
its nirvana
is tranquil
whilst the
pond
only sobs ,
sobs
and disintegrates
and
implodes
with every
ripple
and every
twirl
of the
jubilant
leaf

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

And the
pond
grasp the
leaf with
iron claws
and the
leaf, in paradise,
goes sinking
down into
the urges
shattered urges
and no
wonders
but that
of life

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

Like the
zephyr
the pond
holds no
hostility
and dredges
the debris
and urges
away for
the leaf
to stay
and wonder
and
wonder
and
live
and
swim
and
see
but never
urging
for something
else

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

Urges destitute
and sobs
somber
fire in silk
embraces the
pond
and the pond
untwine the
cloth
that embeds
it into
its urges
to go,
go
into an
alien place
that has
now wonders
or urges
just life
but the
leaf
is still
wondering,
wondering
about peace

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

Calloused home
is under
the leaf
and fire
smoldering
in silk
above
and the
leaf
stops,
stops wondering
and stops
moving
in itself
and home
awaits its
acceptance

Wonders of
the world
can be
deadly

But the
leaf
doesn't
and refuses
and glides
off into
embers ,
embers of
a wonder blaze
and becomes
wonder
while charring
becoming the
wonder that
it cherishes
becoming
the wonder
that home
despises .
