Letter to a Suicide

 

 


 



my Beautiful little sister
materializes in the heavens
floating down to my part of the world
from so far away
my Lovely Celestial Dancer
whose Spirit fills my Heart
with Gladness
whose Crazy Humor bedezins bedecks
my Universe with WildWomyn
Laughter Song & Stories
whose Open Heart whose Secret Heart
tiptoes tentatively Bursts Blazingly
Always brings Love into the World
whose Birth was a Gift

Stay  
Dammit!

the cave

                                              


                                                                                                                                                  for RK

return to light

eyes blinded after darkness

            impenetrable

it’s just too much all at once

greedy pupils expand/contract

will the images fade like photographs

            overexposed?

 

return to light

return to water after starvation/

thirst

troglodyte climbing

climbing from the bowels of the earth

the eyes have not gone useless

yet

 

electric blue gaze of heaven

            paralyzing

teach me again

to behold the universe
