holy
to receive what is good
and discard
what is unworthy
to praise what is holy
and silence what is false
to be in glory
embracing the darkness
waist
taking the trouble
to troubleshoot
might seem
a waist of time
in a world where
everything
can be
replaced
though replacing something
which only needs care
in order to fulfil
its purpose
might also be considered
a waist
unfair
when what seemed
unbearable
is no longer
a burden
and what felt
unfair
leads to righteousness
what was
is
no more
day
and finally
almost unnoticeably
light begins
to return
day by day
increasing
the illumination of
the tangible
surrounded
surrounded by silence
and yet
so full
of noise
as the separation grows
nearer
for peace to settle
fully
breaking out
breaking into
ancient
brokenness
breaking down
illusions
breaking up
behaviours
breaking out
in joy
tiredness
old tiredness
mounting to the surface
claiming the care
it was never granted
in the first place
in order to recover
fully
enough
being ready
for the next step
is enough readiness
for the present moment
to be present
the past to be past
and the future
future
clock
a different kind of
punctuality
drifting on invisible tides
as trustworthy
as any clock
while no one knows
the hour
