Analysis of Dawn in "Z"
Dawn in “Z”
Dawn of Night has begun –
Birth of ashes from coals
Let in air be gone
In between burning Poles,
And the foam of smokes,
Cloud’s homeless surf,
Whirls through pools over rocks –
Windy Music of Orff…
Destination of Time
Is conditional Circle,
And the energies’ tide
Is Infinity’s gurgle –
To Producing absorb,
To Absorbing create:
That’s the Path Downward
Calls uphold and abate…
Evening – Firmament’s Dome:
Adamant is its stone,
Lapis-lazuli – throne,
Open here to atone.
Has Atonement begun?
Ask in front of Sunset:
Where Fulfillment is done,
“A” and “O” merge in “Z”…
