short and spontaneous

short and spontaneous:
--
For that moment
in the chaos of confusion
pure light
jumped in.
--
Nights without moon
darkness treasured
Adjust your eyes.
--
The fall of the heart:
a leaf breathes
the street crumbles
a memory of the ocean
and all its Sound.
--
Once a reckoning
now forgiveness
like
to you,
no one was there
only because you
didn't turn around.
--
One paper proclaims
One fire reclaims.
Solid matter
so easily
becomes ash
and wind.
--
Tumble through the subway trail
home every evening from the same
to the same,
from the tired
to the comforting,
from gratitude to gratitude,
each place a heartbeat
leading to the next.
--
We admire
The greatness of things
steady and unyielding;
We are so much water
held together inside
so little skin.
--
Align one piece to another
day by day.
Suddenly your mind will match
your heart.
Suddenly your work
will center over your
soul.
--
In this roundabout
there is an exit
it comes whenever
you open your mouth and say,
"No."
--
The fear of one does not necessitate
the fear of another.
In times of crisis,
stay focused;
You know as much as your neighbor
about Light.
