The kettle




 The kettle’s lid stayed unmoved to my voice 
More silent than an early morning
immortal gods and Chinese hares
fighting under it, drowning in keylan tea 

I have to bury the kettle deep into the soil
And dream about it only at nights

  1. I am fascinated by this poem. I understand much of it, and yet much of it understands me less.
    So I read it, and read it!

    This is appealing to me!
