is a matter of
what we prevent
ourselves from
knowing
a legend
is a made thing a
thing
made out
of circumstance
that a story cannot carry
in its making
it is made
& to say what
it is
which is
to say that the making of a legend
the making
is retained
by the made
thing
that the
legend tells the story of its creation
how it came
to be
what it came
to
that this
man
an oak tree of a man with an
infinite mind
spilled
into violence so to be seen as not short tempered
as virtuous instead
and by
extension
unedited ineradicable
and so
towers the legend over his poems the
thinking
swaying
and unquestionable
every
move every physical
every
intellectual & musical move like a bear emerged
and drunk
from her cave returned to creation creation
itself.
