Part I

Morning cracks open and light spills out
Whether red sky or gray
Or gold-gilded white
Whether we are hand in hand, or otherwise
When it hits us the first time
It is that same light that beckoned us
Out of that salty liquid dark
All that time ago
Before memory
Towards which we flew and fell
To which we prayed
Before we built our own small moons
In the quietest place it is still humming
In the quietest place it is like the pull of the tides
We breath in sunlight
And exhale miracles
That which will outlast me
As it touches my face so may it touch yours
If I send all of my love there
If my heart, too, cracks open
Will you feel it
Always
Always

You merciless banquet
Could you have been laid out with such indifference
To offer knowledge, strength, and inspiration
While we sit starving
Hiding food under napkins
Sullen children at a feast
Can we be forgiven
For straying so far from
What was intended
For taking this light
And feeding it to the family dog
How stubborn are we
To go to bed hungry

Part III

There was a yard with two tall trees
Whose limbs entwined over a tire swing
And simpler times with simpler schemes
Before we were such complex things
Before the doubt that freedom brings
Before divisions. Before we sent the brigades.
When branches held us
in their shade.
Long since cut down
their roots now decay
in earthen mounds
On either side of storied ground
Though we may mourn what has been killed
The branches bend
and hold us still

Bless the coat there by the doorway
Bless the stitches
Bless the thread that's served us
Held us to each other
Bless the needle and bless the hole
Bless this body and all its mending
May it be lifted like water
May it be scattered like rain
Take the fruits that bend down these branches
Their ripeness is ready
May they nourish another
Bless this needle
May it be lifted
Bless the canopy of leaves yet to fall
And the walkway they land on
Wet with love and longing
Bless our hearts left over from the flood
Bless the stitches
And bless the thread that's served us
Holds us
Holds us to each other
Bless the smell of the soft earth
Bless the smell of the soft earth that is our home
May we be lifted like water
May we be scattered
