Doubling Boundaries
You had me at Aloha
all through Aloha again,
between banks of outdoor clouds
sailing sigh,
some lighter whiter
faster,
some darkly starkly stable
yet even these passing through
this invite and disinvite farewell Aloha
you greet me as Shalom
through our health as wealth comencement,
fleeing indoor fleeting noise
for outside peace
flights of radiant fancy
seeing colors inside out
where we belong
in our less seething sheathed Shalom.
Are we only our indoor voices
ending at odds with where resonance begins?
Our outside voices
ending eventually within,
evenly without,
within and between
clouds both bright and dark.
