Just four letters in a mouth,
you are a swollen word,
an impregnable word,
a dazzling swarm.
A toast to all things:
to the shape of men;
the fathomless water
of women;
to the song in the damp earth,
to the light,
the heady air;
the lotus bud; the grape; to the
pitch of a note; to the memory
of green days; to nights, thick
with celestial bodies
and the cries of the newly born.
You leap
from the bosom
of all joy uttered;
a smiling rogue;
a soft warrior;
an open sanctuary,
flinging your arms,
dangling your treasure,
a tribute to
the tongue that knows,
that in speaking
your name,
to give it life within the world,
we become boundless;
we inherit the infinite;
we are unheralded,
unheralded,
unheralded.
Take care, keep safe, and stay beautiful,
With love and peace,
