Poem #9

Oct 20, 2023

In fire tested moments brilliant bright

a soul in wicked dauntless light

does carry with it a believer's might

when found and translated right.

In it all we forget who we are to be

and waltz in twilight deep as the sea

where dark moments can strangle thee

and make the straggling thoughts flee.

So we insist on baking only by sight,

creating by wit and words that fight

the mysterious wind and rains cold bite

reminding us of our basic, primal, plight.
