I don't do a quiet tea ceremony
to access the ineffable.
i sit like a wolf before a sunset
-hardly comprehending.
I think of fireflies:
evolutionary pressures that formed them
Well married to the thrill
They arouse in us humans
......and a strand of the web becomes
visible for a second!
- Awareness of complexities,
Each and every moment
Proposing to joy -
* * *
....Though this proposal will be turned
down today:
- I would shatter like a light bulb
With too high a voltage -
Keep these avowals of love coming....
Oh, my Friend and Lover....
Til my green mind has ripened
...Until I come of age.
