sacred
pulse
the
music of muses
moves
as one blurred song,
remnants
of grief,
sounding
all the dissonant parts--
a
sacred pulse,
ravaging
hearts too soon.
poetry,
instead,
silences
the swoon upon arrival,
stretches
the terrible beauty of rage-returned,
prolongs
the noiseless echoes
to
better shatter
