And every poem and every picture

Armando Milani

And every poem and every picture
a sensation in the eye and heart Something
that jolts you awake from the rapt sleep of living
in a flash of pure epiphany
where all stands still in a diamond light
transfixed revealed for what it truly is in all its mystery
So a bird is an animal flown into a tree singing
inscrutable melodies
As a lover stands transparen
Screened against the sun
Smiling darkly in the blinding light

Lawrence Ferlinghetti
