First Light To Keep
The first cut sharp and burning red,
don’t edit away its fire
Keep the wound both fresh and raw,
never cauterize your ire
The horizon breaks just once each day,
a new dawn—cold hearts aspire
Rays burning deep, first light to keep
—old ashes to inspire
(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2016)
