A Light within the Trenches

A human heart is a thicket city, sprawling mud and metal buildings mounds praying for understanding rising to the sun’s arc wanting the commotion to register interconnected in the motion, that this city pounding in one chest is part of a greater network, a membership of travelers through, of other engineers sculpting cities out of the soil and sky feeling as all the better angels of our nature, the little children inside the pump houses of these adult bodies to desire to play together.

The dawns and dusks undulating with the calendar of when the bead pelt rain of what an emotion is becomes expected or allowed to form like dew on the morning grass, warming, evaporating, and collecting in the risen troposphere.  The precipitation point of reckoning, producing liquid life from one body to another, the desire to do so, of the situation evolved naturally with the forethought of being pleased in the hypothetical or reluctant, the volume of the urge to turn face, run from the emotive.  That romantic notion of fools that guides the universe, of seeing what or how to dive in the pool without knowing the depth or temperature of the ocean, but wanting to swim, to attempt to breathe underwater, ceiling as floor, a light within the trenches worth ascending into the descent.

This is all so new, dynamic in getting to know a face glowing inside a fiery ring.  How one reacts, how the other, sweet and cautious, reckless, lawless, decent, modest, graceful, or art in flame is a tapestry just beginning to play with thimble and thread.  I like the colors we have begun to make, no idea of the cloth, but I can see an outline, a possibility
