SOUL LIGHT
It's after midnight
hours since I came home
and sat thinking,
hours since I came home,
your blue eyes still before me.
It's after midnight.
Time has passed.
.
She thinks with her feelings.
Encountering each tiny sensation,
she gathers up the warm truths
and the sad ones in the late light.
Covered in colored scarves,
she dances,
alone but not lonely,
in a desert harsh and gray.
