In southernmost country
where the kewall rises
in pale and seasonal sun,

where the legends freeze
 in remembered dew and the dawned mercury,

they ready the long vats in memory's custom pouring gold, pouring amber,

the old distillations
of grain, of bardic blood and ice and remembrance.

And into the waters the bard descends
into gold, into amber all the while listening

to the dark amniosis
of current and memory flowing about him,

until the lung, the dilating heart
give way in the waters, until he fills with listening

and the world rushes into him
deeper than thought, and he drowns or addles, or emerges a bard.

In the north it is done otherwise:
wisely under the moon where the phases labor

out of darkness to the light
of coins and mirrors in abundant freedoms of air.

I heard you were strangers to the wronged country where the bards descend,

to the waters where faith
transforms into vision, to the night's elixir,
