Considerations

Consider the light,

Royal through the ash,

Consider the passing days,

Consider the tenderness

Of evening and nightsong,

Molecrickets ruling the field,


Consider the snake

Crawled out of its skin,

Caught by the tail on the door,


Consider the flight

Of consciousness raised,

That visceral, libertine plane,


Consider the rush

When you think of the past,

Consider the tingle of living.
