Mysteries
If I liked life less,
there would be no need
for seeing presto bee wing beats on pink blooms
or dawn’s robin breast emerging from clouds
of song
say what you want, but this is what I know—
time puppy-tumbles and snake-slithers,
it is sloth-slow and swallow-swift—
and there is the wind, full of whispers
and fiddle virtuosity,
a call and anchor
to sun and shadow, each tongue of light
holding its inverse–pink to violet, darkening,
gleaming gold again.
My poem from the Oracle.
