colours (xliii)
globe filled with water,
really an earth balloon
about to be thrown from this
planet’s surface into
earth’s ether (more
formally, its atmosphere) by a man with
really, really long arms & super-fantastical hopes.
undoubtedly this man’s imaginative arms’ aim (bull’s-eye!)
is quite good: water-globe disappears into space, shot from one hemisphere,
to land in another. drenched, you reverse time, ride balloon back, find me.
