to sleep under heaven as the caliph of all days
is the lie told white as foam by the ocean
of its spray
glass slabs hover and dreaming bodies link them
causing the whole chain to ascend
dreaming bodies bend
arcing
slow motion convulsed
by space's cousin
the species
specious
suscept
aspect
deliverable
through conduits of ocean foam
cylinders of hovering froth
the great caliph of days must swim
his hands cupping swimmers
a mask of milk
for a face of clouds
suspect
defining
order
