i am powerless

i am powerless 
before machine gun bullets 
and beautiful girls

a splash of water 
a mosquito changes wings 
froggy paradise

i sing my joy but 
only the mountain knows the 
language of the wolf

i can't hear silence 
but i can listen to it 
in pregnant darkness

i kiss your shoreline
no matter how frequently
you send me away

in my dreams my eyes
are filled with joyful love for
everything they see

like a leaf i dance
to invisible music
under quiet stars

when the sun rises
it ceases to be just one
of a billion stars

you just never know
which late summer night will be
the very last one

a breath of jasmine
remembers the rain just past
and sunshine to come
