Pleiades

we pray to wake to a transcendent trust
a love as moist as tears
and feel into each others secret places
without the bite of condescension
willing to risk our fragility
and avoid the fate of the Pleiades

Have you ever wondered what that love would look like if we were standing among the Pleiades, looking down?

If we were standing among the Pleides that love would be the light that shines behind our faces.

Then why avoid it?

I'm not trying to avoid it. I'm willing to risk my fragility in order to avoid not having love. At least that is what I am trying to say.

I am relieved -- and heartened.
