PRODIGAL SON
I, returning
from flights
and railroad
compartments
Dark tunnels
Drawn blinds
Making music
from nothing
——Iron wheel
Squealing on
a metal rail
•
A cloud flew
and profound
figures grew
from nothing
•
Returning, I
high above a
worsted coat
Green tinted
tar-pit of a
Black Forest
smoke-plumed
As if a huge
building had
been brought
to its knees
•
Light——these
small points
•
Down below's
the Tel Aviv
Hill of life
•
Crash, crash
by all means
Dead, alive:
•
•
•
I've arrived
