YOU MAY confidently Lumber me 
by slowly Hanging as often as I
Glide through summer.

FLUTTERING,WINGING with the flock 
in the shadow of the beast.

WITH RAYS SUNG EARTHWARDS 
the beaks Probe onto this terrain.

YOU HOLD 
Undulating with your bill 
you are the Fluttering light.

IN THE LIGHT 
east of the future 
I Swipe the rays, 
which you slowly shadowwrite.

BEFORE YOUR LATE FACE 
a Flapping 
between hollows 
that change me too.

Circulation Sequence 
 
1. We lumber in the shadows 
between the two shoulders 
that support us as we ascend.

2. We look up at the massive form 
and traverse into the funneling space, enshadowed, 
probing towards the bridge.

3. We conceal ourselves from the light and ascend the pinching tunnel looking up into the ribs.
We expose ourselves into the light and splay across the back of the colossus, the group splits in two.

4. Half walk beneath the soaring plateau as the others weave
through the Fluttering terrain.
We disperse through the beams of light, the others project from the shadows, scattered.

5. We converge in the mouth, 
pecking the floor, descending into the belly of the beast.

6. We cluster into the belly, 
ribs surrounding us,  recognizing and recalling the path we came from.
We lumber toward the light
creeping under the hanging 
terrain, our shadows growing and projecting onto the structure, consuming the light.
human and beast become shadow.
