Morning Meditation

How have we done this? ever to thirst sorrow, this feeling!
I’m close to breath, even a friend, pulling and tugging
souls. It’s more today, to graze tomorrow, to wipe a tear.

Its core for peace, to touch a petal, knees filled with grout.
We slake a moment, to wrench a soul, attuned with hunger.
I redeem for love, a chiseled mind, trekking softly.

More a light, to rise a ghost, ever in stillness; for we flit
—for
motion, filled with thunder.

My grayest hopes, as sturdy as steel, for scents of fey.
Thoughts afoul, render flame, to traipse a fog. I hear it less,
to rinse a soul, to face a dungeon. Is it time, to rupture a
cloud,
         to grip for souls?

Every twinge—a needle, a psychic wound, sketching through
a valley.
            I waft in stillness, to flee a log, a turned enchant;
for wires cross, to merge with light, a trickling fount; but more
a torch, a kiln for souls, a verdant glen.
                                                           It’s ever a scar, to form
a fortress, love for rain—and rain for love. I sit a den, to muse
a lion, ever a wick of faith. How have we done this? to
mourn tomorrow!
