lovesong of the square root of negative one

richard siken

l am the wind and the wind is invisible, all the leaves

tremble but i am invisible, bloom without flower, knot

without rope, song without throat in wingless flight, dark

boat in the dark night, pure ¹. as the hammer is

a hammer when it hits the nail, and the nail is a nail when

it meets the wood, and the invisible table begins to appear

out of mind, pure mind, out of nothing, pure thinking.

through darkness, through silence, a vector, a violence,

i ², i ³, i ⁴ forward through the valley as

winter, as water, i mist and frost, flexible and ⁶ to

the task. i am the hand that lifts the rock, i am the mind

that ⁷ the worm and throws the line and feels the ⁸,

the ⁵ in the pole, and foot by foot i find the groove,

the trace in the ⁹, the key in the lock, as root breaks

rock, from seed to flower to fruit to rot, a holy pilgrim

moving through the stations of the ¹⁰. i track,

i follow, i hinge and turn, ¹¹ and efficient as an

equals sign. i ¹² and fold, i superimpose, i become

location and you ¹³ toward me, the eye to which you

are relative, magnetized for your revelation. hook and bait,

polestar and checkmate, i am your arrival, there is no

refusal, we are here, you see, together, we are already here.
