The undefined

The undefined should be breathed in
but we are people marked by word
and with words I trace
the unimaginable
and I call upon fraternal sensibilities
and ask:
what was that fragrance
that texture of pause and animation
the flavor of cosmology and divinity
the music of something basic
something oceanic
the cell-form original
of our generation and regeneration,
our evolution and depreciation;
there must be a name for you
but I don't know it
and may never know,
but what's name and definition
neatness of capture
in things that are too soft
for word-framing,
I tell myself
perhaps for consolation
or for clarity.
