A Field Mentality

Matthew Cooperman

New content, new time
Mei Mei Berssenbrugge says
on our Afterlives

duration continues what has
passed with now

What has passed with now?

In a scalar sky two birds
perch in a constellation tree,
subtle, entangled

a you that is following me, 
the weight of your gaze
falling outside time    

What is field is felt, a sprig 
of bad weather or an algae 
bloom driven by wildfire

O

You are the voice
inside the engine
earth so

tell us     
how to cure 
our avarice
