AN OUTSIDER

As an outsider
like any spider
under a wall
like wild flowers
which devour
tall grass under trees
near the waterfall,
or a bee buzzing
for hours
with a bizarre call,
or a ship's voyager
with a star compass
under a shower of meteors,
the wonder
of a poet's metaphors
cast in language
becomes ours.
