Saltfield Bolivia Noah Friedman-Rudovsky for The New York Times

One day it is
Is thoroughly this day you know
Know you think in moving images
Images as simple that show me how
How small a man in this world can be
Be here he is the opposite color
Color of the world in black
Black is the sum of all is not a color really
Really is more like red or yellow and blue
Blue eyes as flowers and water and in air
Air water and sea more like Lethe in a bath

Bath as in or
Or what is it
It is not this or that
That’s more if if
If I do not remember

Know these are white squares of salt
Salt oh man salt of the Earth
Earth grain or corn in the air
Air the breathing of the heavens
Heavens the soul of this world
World sold by the man
Man oh little guy living in lilac

ToNe [NoTe] of your breathing soul
Who travels to the throne of final
Necessity
