Yon clearing shaped like a temple
in full moonlight, pass through,
once, twice, push along, no place
to catch & slow.
Remember till its shades & sparks,
without meanings or ends, a beat,
a breath, what touches each
to all, brighter with empathy.
Sometimes a nest to step around,
a sudden furred head above ground,
regard but little know its ways,
little know even closest kind’s.
The morrow & daylight hours men
shape like gods, reck us all gods
in every dim & blaring gesture,
fine & funny, soil to sky.
Best remember what shades & sparks
seen in this moonlight, what passed
through no explain. Best remember
step kind around the nests.
