This poem for instance…

Only Bread, Only light

–in memory of Jarkko Laine

Pulls water from graves
Silence and issue

Rise within
Though it has no roots

Say what you like poems are fungi
The mushrooms of lapland

With their hydraulic psychedelias
Reindeer eat them

Only to wander about
Stoned out of their minds
