living is a refrain

another day needs assembly 
even as the season begins
its theater again 

again the thousand mouths  
agape in hungry joy 
and song

singing like leaves crackling 
of the ache I've carried 
since I was 15

perhaps I should still be 15 
second guessing each 
possibility if... as if...

as in an infinity mirror until 
an appropriate darkness
descends like kindness
