Take me to where warm windows glowing golden on summer-soft nighttime drives

Are a wild and rooted bouquet of humanity's heart in its becoming

Little freckled, exquisitely ordinary, peculiar and petalled vignettes

Orbiting hungrily around some central beating body, or, perhaps stronger still,

That hardwood, foundational, yet inescapably ephemeral belief

In something better, and beautiful, and blindingly bright.
