Ancient Music (on vinyl)

1.
The same turning back the same
parting of the reeds

              2.
              The tide that sang
                                          gregorian rap tunes
                              to the seaweed

3.
The flawed turquoise
that stained the glass
perfectly clear

              4.
              The stone
                              ocean smooth & dark

5.
The smoke ring
              on your finger
as though it was
              a bell to mark the promise
                              monastic in the hollow
              of your eye
