the prayer itself is an answered prayer


the prayer itself is an answered prayer

an oath reaches the air and wondering

if the mountain is listening


all the mixes of genes and genders

trickle upward rendered by flame 

disappear just the same


mother coughing up sweet poison

rings of voice on narrow ambitus

with Ilyn and his abacus


the prayer interrupts the transition

our mission remains at the border

in the naked disorder
