lirik lagu nancy opel - the sun underfoot among the sundews
an ingenuity too astonishing
to be quite fortuitous is
this bog full of sundews, sphagnum~
lines and shaped like a teacup
a step
down and you’re into it; a
wilderness swallows you up:
ankle~, then knee~, then midriff~
to~shoulder~deep in wetfooted
understory, an overhead
spruce~tamarack horizon hinting
you’ll never get out of here
but the sun
among the sundews, down there
is so bright, an underfoot
webwork of carnivorous rubies
a star~swarm thick as the gnats
they’re set to catch, delectable
double~faced c~ckleburs, each
hair~tip a sticky mirror
afire with sunlight, a million
of them and again a million
each mirror a trap set to
unhand believing
that either
a first cause said once, “let there
be sundews,” and there were, or they’ve
made their way here unaided
other than by that backhand, round~
about refusal to assume responsibility
known as natural selection
but the sun
underfoot is so dazzling
down there among the sundews
there is so much light
in that cup that, looking
you start to fall upward
