Double Vision - a cento


At this moment someone

watches herself, singularity erased



by a sky which will stay brilliant for some time

       as though the light that once lay in the weeds now waits

in the air above



Her soul is surely the picture

of this tranquil elation



tossed

a postcard of the ocean into the ocean.
