名人诗歌|Where, Broken the darkness

by Liz Waldner

Cows on the spine1 of the hill like the spine of a book are some letters

Letters with legs; like an E and an L or an R that is squared like the box of the body of cows

Like the spine of a book, the legs and the bodies of cows spell out the name and

maybe the head spells also the name of the book on whose spine is embossed

the name made of grass:

The light of the many days and the darkness the roots of the grass pull up out

of the hill and the light pushes down with the feet of the cows and the darkness

inside of the skulls2 of the cows, all these the name has eaten

The lines of the spines3 of the cows grazing the sky, the meeting of spine and sky

also marking the arcing edges of dark or light letters on dark or light pages

where, broken, the name grazes the thing it will know or mean or become

These are the choices.

However, there are other books.
