Chimera

By | 1 February 2015

Cupped by dirt then buried learning in earth blindness to feel history passing
the chimera reads the tracery of the city erupting overhead as Arezzo inhales,
sighs

Hands reach into trenches dug to lay the city’s new walls and grapple a
monster’s body of bronze into air, his three treacherous faces alert

The fortress looms, and the piazza thick with human fears Chimera watches
as stones are laid into new streets

Awakening to brilliance and overwhelmed with light he witnesses some
new faith arising on the floodplain

Claws splay at the boundlessness of air
