Sans

As a stream of pale yellow pressed out of me

I bent to inspect

And in the stream were old words 

Histories,
 reasons
Phrases of Fagles' Iliad
 Other canon crystals

With all their supposed import

Childhood conversations corrupted through cloning (dream repetition, bragged assertions)

So many loves felt intensely

And intentions I swore were digested

All and more
 wept away in urinary tears
  Blood would be cleaner

I have swallowed living rivers

But I can not hold them

Any more than the earth
