Light is more Important than a Lantern

in sorrow

we burn

a moment

we held

in the palm

that does

not want

to return

tear like

ashes

a weeping

urn ...

words

unfinished

unwoven

unspun

 

 

rootless

broken stem

now it is

your turn

 

 

i try

i plead

to god

i yearn

not to

become

like them

i unlearn

terse

taciturn

light

shade

contrasting

patterns
