I loved the sun so purely I could hate

[joel]

I loved the sun so purely I could hate
it unapologetically and not
once question the abuse; I therefore smile.
I loved a star already in decline
when first its light cut colors to the east—
I’m not some dimwit fool astronomer.
I know the sun senesces in the face
of my dependency. Perhaps dark space
outruns some light my lovely lucifer
bright dangles from its height, but I at least
cannot—and so I love and love divine.
You blessed humble Love and infantile
approach to life, you suffer come your lot
to you as is (when I’d manipulate).

[Ann Bingham]

"I know the sun senesces in the face"

Yes age shows in the face, but it is our actions that tell our mental age.

For the love
of dying stars,

I deign
the Creator
with a smile;

undeserved,

perhaps...

My mirror
shatters,

before I
glimpse
the truth.
