Follow the black birds who have
finished the day shift, and are moving roughly
north and to the west

The ravens follow women in severe suits, their
chorus of stilletos have been picked up
by swirling leaves

the chirping of smaller birds sounds
exactly like adding machines

The women follow repentant gunmen who,
taking parables literally, amputate their
trigger fingers

Follow the itch in their phantom digits
until you come to bodhisvatta- - sitting by a
tree with his back to you

Approach him slowly and press your question
against him until your dark question has
turned white as an insistent thumb pressing
against the doorbell of heaven
and someone lets you in.

i'm lovin' this..

"The ravens follow women in severe suits, their
chorus of stilletos have been picked up
by swirling leaves

the chirping of smaller birds sounds
exactly like adding machines

The women follow repentant gunmen who,
taking parables literally, amputate their
trigger fingers "

whew!!! this is hot.. those lines I snatch'd from your quote put a smile on my face..
