A SORT OF BEACH ACTIVITY WHOSE WAY OF BEING IS EXISTENCE
What
Is
Publicly called the "unknowable"
Is
The
Only knowledge that has echoes.
Launched by
Lyricism, an anchor
Sails or steams
Oceans
Without the burden having a boat.The anchor
Is not made of iron, or shaped
Like two bent arrows on a thick shaft with a hook,
But the anchor is constituted by Sandpipers
Leaving foot tracks
On the gray, wet sand
That edges the white shore sand.
Sandpiper tracks are anchors.
