at Now's surreal boundary where rough
meets mind's edges, life invites
ears to timely hearing
as pebble-tough questions lie underfoot
and as sting of saline rimes wet cheeks
in unkind steps when reason
meets stress rises queries,
needs to ask things not yet understood
there, as endings mingle mysteriously
with every beginning does grief's
hold let go for life to begin
in one who gladly late love undertook?
