Gauzy Curtains

Filtering filaments of shouting color Dancing brilliant motes Defining sunlight by crowding into invisible shafts Reflecting hope and brilliance Revealing resistance with every tiny fragment Defying gravity to fly the final arc of existence Catching the sun and revealing an unseen world That every breath is defined by gauzy curtains of sustenance; Should we be so dispassionate that we inhale all this Unknowing
