I’d pour vast spaces
(E.g. insides of harps, skies)
With heart-colored roseblood.
Why weight, when a lieder is a song

To weigh your heart on,
A space to hang your hat on,
A way to heat your home
And lift your words beyond sighs?

A style I admire flies
Not unlike a Zeppelin (a leaden ship
That drops poems on bombs);
Which is to say, you must lift it

With something highly flammable
Inside like a credo or hydrogen, which
If caught, would catch
If not on fire, on sale or on time,

And propel the eyes with
Shear unwinding blindness.
But please do

not generalize.


Lieder ship, leaden ship
