Lightening Up


All hail the broadening and widening of light! –
(despite your slight illicit whispered sorrow
at diminishing incursions of the Night: the globe
inclines to Darkness’ dissolution now – the fine
sweet dangerous ablutions to which Evening once

invited you abate. Keep the secret: ride through to
the peak of June – incrementally beyond which Dusk
will carry out its promise, and your fate: gratifying
yearnings for the deeper, longer opening of its
soft shadowed gate. Lighten up: you can wait.)
