        Are You A Little Bit Surprised?




You who are reading

here,

be patient reading

this “Angel’s Call”

please,

and

try again...

focus on the poem’s

“here and now”

thought flow,

Well,.......... now,...we proceed,

do you

remember?

when you see...

the music in the shapes of things,

swimming through the evening windows’ lights

of ...

let’s say,

some down town

or

for example, Hawthorne street,

full of faces’ clouds

which

are passing you by,

like some sort of

strange butterflies

you feel your breath,

your feet are

touching the ground

one

by

one

your head,

your eyes,

your hands,

are moving

s  l  o  w  l  y

in the summer evening cold

your soul...is

descending

..................down

......................down

..........................down

into

Soul of Things,*

and there is

Light

are you

a little

bit

surprised?

I am asking you a question,

please, do you read,

Do you see what I am asking you about?

it’s not a joke,

it’s not a poem or ... something dumb

I am really asking YOU the question,

YOU

follow me? :

“Are You a Little Bit Surprised?”
