Can't you see where memories are kept bright?
When I
and stallion
blend
the grass gets cropped.
Control: A translation (1974)
Time in her eyes is spawning past life,
One with the ocean and the woman unfurled,
Holding all the love that waits for you here.
When God comes at me
do I bow the stallion's legs
or meet him with flared nostrils?
Control: A translation (1974)
When Man comes at me
do I rein in the stallion,
or let him meet the hooves?
Control: A translation (1974)
When Woman comes at me
do I let her take the bridle,
or turn away the head?
Control: A translation (1974)
Embla lies with each thing,
Ask looks and knows.
Understanding
without explanation
they depart and separate.
The Creation Edda (1970)
For Now does ride in on the curl of the wave,
And you will dance with me in the sunlit pools.
We are of the going water and the gone.
We are of water in the holy land of water
And all that's to come runs in
With the thrust on the strand.
On the ice flow they grip,
cut, twist, break open seeds
throwing out the white salt,
revive volcanic dreams:
unable to satisfy
their diminuated lust
the allegoric flesh
learns the thrill of return.
