Tilted Toward the Sun

please click to enlarge

Tilted toward the sun,

the intensity of living

under the cloud cover

driving us to search

for purpose, meaning, legacy,

we begin at last to understand,

considering the vanishments,

the isolated now is what we have,

and how we treat each other,

and dogs and birds and grass,

whirling through enormous night,

the quality of that, and gone.
