My Lord
Make malleable to me words winged
So for each I choose

unto each I choose

With warmer wisdom

and keener cunning

A friend in the Spring wind is never tinged.

So is repentance sought for the weakness of a drowned out heart.

"My Lord! This is how I have divided things that are within my
control.Please forgive me what is beyond my control."
Muhammed (PBUH)

When I'm meant to be listening

To the potential of the moment

The sound of fireworks

Creeps through my bedroom window

I listen resigned to the noise of some other place

Like that time

I tried to sleep

But the sound of tumultuous waves

Crashed unabashed through my hotel window

And forced me to stay awake

-listening to it talk to some other people.

The place is always transient

But its noises stay a fragmentary constant.

Time

Like the woodpecker

At the great oak tree

Pecks

Into my being

Until

I walk

wounded-
riddled with the hollows of its unrelenting passage.
