Radiance, For Dylan ThomasRadiance
by Michael R. Burch

hewn and sighing, complete,
waiting, lain in a low...

Strolling in unnoticed contemplation through worlds stacked upon worlds

Diving into the expressionism of bizarre fringes

and even formerly sober ecological,
relationships suddenly veer insanely romantic?
Or worse,
mistrustful
and yet
not always distrustful,

maybe deeper sadness
and occasional manic gladness
