Beyond a why.
Beyond a why more distant than a hope before a love far sooner than forget
shook starlight from the flare of doves and poetry from the rack and shock
of words there was a memory more close than breath of a life far blither
than perhaps that found succour in the soft obliterations of the snow and
silence in the slender passage of an hour.
After a maybe more sudden than a death a wish more subtle than despite knew
wisdom in the admonitions of the clock and splendour in the terrors of the
night far better this sometime than those nevers of despair rather an ocean
than an age and so do not bend to hear the gloomy chuggings of the heart but
fill the days with all the laving jubilations of the light.
