Light We Hold
Light we hold in our hands
is nothing but an hour of sky
no stars no sound
no complements
there is no pillow
here no
need
only faint sounds
of an “s” as it leaves
the sun’s rogue tongue.
Here we find weeds
capturing
a chain link fence:
a barbed collar noon
wrapped around a
rusty week of blooms.
Resilience is our
masterpiece, a tripod
of Images wrought
with no spare time.
Crickets chirp
their love repair
all something long
and we retire
to the wanton
vapor dirge
of twilight who
never tells
her secret (that
stars and souls linger
longer than they sleep),
but breathes
blue arcs of difference
into our loom.
