Slow down choose with care my Aletheia if you dare
In a river lethe unclothe us melt us wear inside a tare
Unforgotten unforgiven unhidden in a way you own,
You emerge as the coverings round you-slip & groan,
Revealed in the early one bright and thrumming day,
Show me the flows in you drip me softly along a way
Stop trying, something underneath barely volunteers
A quiet recognition of the soul-whispers as she nears,
Bring it closer ... almost getting it-- I see it in the folds,
The rare trembling moments nothing concealed holds
I'd like to say just once eternal echoes in a down slow,
You're the wind in me that slips away unveils a show.
