So,
I wrote a shamelessly fond
and devoted exploration
of you, or some idea. Over which
I had no right, which I know
But,
I thought I'd toss it out
to the world! Without
your name for any or you
to spot or not, for any
to secretly openly know
what I'm getting at, which
anyway, is beautiful
And
for its own sake, really. Just
a jot and a lick
and a spot of paint
outspread in licensed ways
of artifice or poetry,
maybe a shot or a swerve
of aesthetic wish or want,
just gently pricked
and bled its bliss
naive and blithe,
and own.
That's how sake is.
Self-supervised, directed
and grown by natures intrinsic
and sensible, or inscrutable.
It isn't a game, all rules
with no play or win in them.
It's just a statement, tender
and plain
And accurate
as a gentleman,
or a paradox,
or anything else
one could describe
for profit or gain
I hope and guess,
Or just for itself:
the doing of it.
Some joyous plaint
or paean of words,
trying to catch
as best one gets.
