Thank You Jakob Boehme Poem by Kevin Kiely

The glare of this compact brilliance stings the eyes
real Christmas card scenery
brave kids sculpt sling and slide
flakes melt in the hand
fleece falling that way
why this colour and highlighter of forms
when a mere cooling of vapour
like rain do rain's work
without the spectacular metaphorical gesture
in these providential atoms
boil them and the water is dirty
milk lily lyric
powered to destroy and paralyse
without signing leaves its signature
ceaseless crystals of white light
wax drops from the white candle of the world
the light of the world
