Desperate Beautiful

You have lost
the tendency

to be
sensible, useful-

desperate beautiful.

Not what you wrote
(on a grain of sand)

that mimicked God
but what was missing-

are we more beautiful
when we're searching?

With opened eyes
all your words
are leafless

and I saw
a solitary
cloud dissolve

in a bodiless sky.
