the indifferent warming light
note to self
it’s not personal
oh, you wanted to believe it is
love is simply love
wild and bright, a warming light
impartial and unconcerned
it belongs to no one in particular
it belongs to everyone
you flailed and railed—
two years metabolizing
it’s just not personal
thank you to David Whyte for the phrase “the indifferent warming light.”

I’m writing a poem a day. These are drafts—they may never turn into anything more or they might flower.
