xiii. Nada<br />

Chase her among the beats, stellar<br />

music tightens sad, releases joy,<br />

melodies of knowing & nada through<br />

the mist moving all things. She nears<br />

again & the why breaks into branches &<br />

windy petals, among the beats what’s<br />

obscure flickers open, love plain &<br />

golden. From a life’s anguish shudders<br />

out a dream, now glittering, flare, explosion.<br />

She nears again, among the beats, &<br />

I cry faith! fidelity! Receive me your every<br />

terror I will quiet you. Burn our ruins to<br />

cascade night’s pathless woods. Home<br />

a chase among stranger beats now, awhile.<br />

Faith, fidelity. What must love become to<br />

endure? Dream me, kiss me, make it hard,<br />

make it hurt. Beat my will into a weapon for<br />

your worship. I will be the lasting instrument<br />

strumming you, stroking you, blowing<br />

out the rhythms & melodies your heart<br />

bears but hardly still calls its own.<br />
