DENISE LEVERTOV: "TO THE READER"

Post by Zlatko Waterman » November 9th, 2004, 11:53 am

To the Reader



As you read, a white bear leisurely
pees, dyeing the snow
saffron,

and as you read, many gods
lie among lianas: eyes of obsidian
are watching the generations of leaves,

and as you read
the sea is turning its dark pages,
turning
its dark pages.

-- Denise Levertov
