Did you spy me as I wept in Yireh’s garden?
Did you glide on fawns’ hooves
To deliver message to Artemis of my dark hour?
********************
Did you mourn as tears watered my visage?
Did you beckon to Selene
To comfort me with soft luminescent beams?
********************
Did you pity me as I sagged towards the Styx?
Did you hail Charon’s skiff
To ferry me to my slough of despond?
********************
Did you testify to Another aloft but hidden?
Did you rejoice at the dawn of Creation
And join in song with the all the host of heaven?
********************
Did you bolster my complaint above the circle of the earth?
Did you flag down my Beloved
And demand my birthright be honored?
********************
Did you lend your voice to the planetary orchestra?
Did you tug on my Beloved’s ear
So that He might bend and acquiesce to thee?

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
