Lightly child, lightly

light-sunlight-morning

In the morning
the light flickers—

every place it touches is unnamed.

I forget
my silk-spun dreams & losing heart.

I am open. I am soft.
I move into the silence

but I know I can’t stay.

— Michelle Tudor, This is Not the Place

O.K., I’m going to trust you, I think, yes…

Heart. Hammers. Tongue. Teeth.

Our heart survives between hammers,

just as the tongue between the teeth

is still able to praise.
