To see Void vast infinite
look out the window
into the blue sky
Allen Ginsberg
----------------------------------------------------------------
If I cannot find the blue sky
If I cannot find the void
Then I will try to revisit the blue sky
Then I will try to revisit the void
Somewhere between the void and the blue sky
I will find the haiku
I will find the beat poet
Somewhere between the blue sky and the void
I will find the poem
I will find the poetry
If I cannot find the old words
The well-preserved words
Then I will write new words
The self-absorbed words
Somewhere between the dying and the death
I will find life in the haiku
I will find life in the beat poet
Somewhere between the death and the dying
I will find life in the poetry
I will find life in the poem
If I cannot find the death
If I cannot find the dying
Then I will try to find the words of the death
Then I will try to find the words of the dying
