Astonishing - how in less than one full day fresh Radiance can saturate perceptions eyes with such New fullness that each molecule of air reflects Uncommon brilliance. Even more, the clichéd dust Of yesterday lies settled underfoot with what Had held me fast to tyranny: a lustful pride Close-focused upon loss, and brutalizing cut- Throat zeal for self-abuse. Now these undeified, Untimeless crowns lay on the ground. I stand Transfigured, reconciled to love as Paul struck blind On his way to Damascus. Seeing you, I understand What had been fantasy as fact; endings redefined To shimmering endless chance. Between our eyes Everything is supernova, awakening made unified.
