And how

Scream down the sky and
bring it here, right here,
in your living room,
shove the stuff aside,
clean your table,
throw an old rag over the screen,
and settle in for
the divine,
here and now.
Dervishes chant,
seemingly unhinged,
and well-formed sigils
can only hint at
the importance
of such elevation.
Every seagull knows: not
that bald heads make
great targets, but that
perspective, the enhanced
rising above, is how you live,
how you walk as if in a dream,
how you approach any face,
how you see the beyond in a grass-blade,
how you love.
