The New World Requires
the new world requires smooth elephants
hirsuit elephants go back into the earth
your eyes abhor an emptiness
people a desert with figures
the new world requires hirsuit elephants
smooth elephants go back into the earth
arms severed long ago reach out
to you the phantom hand of peace
the new world requires smooth elephants
hirsuit elephants go back into the earth
rain is blood, sweat or what you will
when you have never known it fall
the new world requires hirsuit elephants
smooth elephants go back into the earth
up to your mirror your martian swims
two moons rise, go round and round again

Again, fascinating, very original. Had you been smoking something? Not a criticism - just that the language is so particular. Jennifer
