For once, your voice which always catches its victim fails– Odysseus sails past you and you see his desire redshift. Above you as you drown, silent success: stars lured and bound tricked into islands of attraction.
Original symbol for asteroid 11 Parthenope from Gould, B.A. “On the Symbolic Notation of the Asteroids.” (1852)
For once,
your voice
which always catches
its victim
fails–
Odysseus sails
past you
and you see his desire
redshift.
Above you
as you drown,
silent
success:
stars lured
and bound
tricked
into islands
of attraction.
