QUOTE : Where is his father?<br />When will his mother be home?<br /><br />How is he going to explain<br />the moon taken hostage, the sea<br />risen to fill up all the mirrors?<br /><br />How is he going to explain the branches<br />beginning to grow from his ribs and throat,<br />the cries and trills starting in his own mouth?<br /><br />And now that ancient sorrow between his hips,<br />his body’s ripe listening;<br />the planet<br />knowing itself at last.
