Meditations on "While We Slept"

by Ondine Brooks Kuraoka

Sprouting and tendriling upward

Over you over me

It blows through and scatters

This feeling into the night

Soothing day rages and hurts and spills

Glittering and singing in plump sighs

Without being seen

It needs no eyes

It smells like clean moss

Green and sure of everything

Without needing to know

You or me or anything but this night.
