praying about creations
God
are you out there
are you
in here
there is matter
there are spirits
there
is energy
and how many planes
through which
to live
we have this
self
we look through skin
with eyes and more than eyes
and less
we are alive
Earth is
alive
with even rock that moves
though let science determine
investiture
by measurement
and let us live
with
what we have
the wonders of exchange
cohabitation
of
matter and movement
oxygen
and carbon
a touch of supernal creation
to begin
and to carry into what is next
mystery
miracle
energy and matter
in
the exchange we know
and then a language with translation
only yours to speak
to generate
to sing into existence
afterward
maybe
first
a paradise to bear of explanation
and if you say
amen

Fractured Translationing

Why can’t we
Call a city or a country
By the name its
Own natives do (native
to native)?
Why can’t we call
Florence Firenze
Spain España?
We call Bombay Mumbai,
Which is a step
Peking Beijing,
Which must be closer
I’m afraid I must agree
About the letters
English-speakers do need
English letters
An apology to the world
For that
But for the names,
We could at least
Ask the towns
And nations
What they want
That would be closer
And correct
And finally
Friendly
