Each day
the sun steals its way
across the unending universe
...
Maybe.
within the strange fires,
in the living of this life
...
A domesticated animal
can not survive again
within the wild
...
Lions angry-
frothing, seething
that courage can
kill death,
...
When will I be old enough
to speak openly
of the beautiful love
I share,
...
Sometimes
the raw, brutal finality
of every single thing I do
as a living being,
...
