bed of coals
Enveiled, as usual
lifted my eyes by the chin
you invited me in
a place I know, have been
sitting by the fire-place.
And only on this hearth
have I seen illumination
made warmer
by generous raditation
over time and across space
between us-apart-of something else
that remains Otherness
between bonds like breath
we share aglow,
rekindled when struck together.
