We Have No Need Of Prophets

Nic Sebastian

---

we live where they come from
the brown air of our country
rattles

our mountains are gray with
sleeping our babies born
without ears

let us hang our harps
on the willow, close in
among ourselves and ask

is there nowhere some slight
fallen spark we may carefully
blow upon
