To Sri Lanka the girl’s eyelids
could not rotate fast enough
could not
because the fingers were rooted, they were invicted
therefore we see a mandala
therefore a tree cannot become a mandala
but what can a tree become?
(she had to hit rock-bottom, to cross logic–it was a threshold)

but what about those eyelids?
what they regarded when they were invicted
the fingers kept a firm grip on
the oar pretty much beyond taking
as the blooms were, by religion
as trying was, by belief–
painkiller, prayer-beads, traffic, language, helicopter
not like anyone else
