Of Urbanity

Yet another piece for my degree; to lead the exercise, I "generated" the 12th hexagram, Standstill. This "changed," as it were, to the 56th hexagram, Wandering.

Of Urbanity

Defenseless, thought

undoes the noun

as when a womb

absorbs the sound

of life's fluid separations

Seismic verve wrinkles each world

and every light's

wet ovular fruit,

broken, runs along a crease

in the mergers midst each city's ferment

When there is hope, the evening sky

itself appears delicious, while

abstracted doubts ooze from the ground:

the conflicted palette

of urbanity
