jim leftwich, a poem (The Rheophile Mind)

The Rheophile Mind

snowswords unfold in traditional

of world-body-diet actionable
​into Space? Choreographic
geographies of The Rheophile
Mind (a kind of mindfulness
that likes living in fast-moving
water). Lotic, meaning "washed"

We know Bob Cobbing used a rock as a score for sound poetry, so anybody can make sounds out of anything, if that's what they choose to do. But here is a poem that says, don't do that. Just look. Maybe "read" the shapes of the letters.
