SUNSET
sunset:
the Earth and sky
bleed into each other
and as the Sun sinks
it wonders if all will
be blessed to
see him rise
again
be witness
to the glory of another day
having once been
so naive to
confide in us
that essential
truth, its
primal secret
whose release
has brought us in
terrible imagination to
this
moment of balance
where our entire fate hangs,
could not
be more precarious
in our
unwrenched minds,
own failing hands
