I'm coming, I'm coming, wait up, stones! |
  |
Sometimes, some tone or season, |
we are able to be together, or to be one, |
to live, to die in this great hush |
of hardness, mother of all glow. |
  |
Sometimes flowing |
through volcano's fire or river's arbor |
or fresh air's faithful circulars |
or stuck trek through the snow |
or caked dust in the desert |
regions, metallic |
dustcloud, |
or even farther, the polar father of stone, |
icy sapphire, |
Antarctica: |
in this point or port or birth or death |
we shall be stone, borderless night, |
unbending love, unending brilliance, |
eternal light, buried fire, |
pride condemned to its intensity: |
  |
the only star that is ours. |
