Chaos (2011)
Hila Plitmann

sparkling sand tickles underneath
smoke shadows lifting from a warm teacup
nations tearing at war
big bang echoes
me and you entangled  
ancient ferns devour ancient cities
euclidian angles going absolutely haywire
traffic jammed clouds weeping into a gulf stream
you and I entangled 
chaos chaos (organized) chaos such perfect chaos
baldness patterns
the wind takes a leaf on an innocent journey
markets crashing boom! in modern cities
the rhythm of your sighs to my sweet surrender
little magic openings chemically intertwined— 
chaos chaos (don't clean it up) chaos such perfect chaos 

We're seeking control, trying to find a path for handling meaning
the cage is so small, obscuring the all
time only exists in our counting counting counting counting it. 
it's chaos chaos (organized) chaos such perfect chaos
