Dragon

There is a veil between me And the bottomless sky. Cloud or a sheet billowing, The edge of my mind. Standing on the street In the rain, (Unnamed and unknown) Only sound, Assuming nothing. Seeing the echoing shape Of the mammoth that tore Through the brush here (A tractor idling Two blocks away In the fog, unseen.) And the dragon that roars now. For all I know, Lost in the weather. Petals blow. Is this a river? In a palace of water Nothing is familiar And the ground always shakes. I dive into A pool of uncertainty. Going into the basement again, I reach down Beneath the human.
