| A Rope written 1998 Climbing into infinity is a rope Whose never-ending fibers intermix And braid around each other In the cold wind rushing insanely by And wrap up in themselves To guard from the freezing air But each knows its particular fate Lies the same as all his siblings And creeps slowly upward Chasing them into infinity As they flee in trails of vapor And cease to exist down below When their predator finally engulfs them With its purifying fingers Of white-hot incandescence Which grip the rope with heat And burn it away in anger While the fibers scream without noise In anguish and eternal despair As their own fragile parts And the parts of their counterparts Are lost in the devastation down below Which has been following them Since the beginning of time And will continue its pursuit Into infinity. |
