How You Can In Me Turn Poem by johannes lewinsky

How You Can In Me Turn



How you can in me turn this knife turn
Which is my greatest longing after
delight and the attempt to hold me
out from all that i would is not negotiable
now that i have this seen and have this been and in
and with it am become embedded with

for in this is and with me is
not just the atoms of my being am
but all of these that surroundinghave
and dissolved have the barriers between

and only now i can see how it is
not just one of these but how all of these
the singing in the blood of DHL
Salvador Dali'sparanoiac critical dreams
And all that upside downness and in between ness of
Wilson's Faculty X & Maslow's peaks
Wagner's Ring & Groddeck'sIt

have come to me all
From this single place
Where i can be and am
this space that lies between

All that i can
ingest & excrete
