For days we sailed upon whims,
following fascination and laughing at life.
We washed the week’s concerns with appreciation.
Plan outward from the essential and the eventual unfolds.
The climax of your story is the middle.
Nobody wants to live the end again.
When you plan to be rescued
and the savior is right there,
do you really know risk?
It’s a thrilling dream,
the downslope of the coaster.
You forgive your protector in thanks.
Welcome conversation at that point,
wake early and don’t fear sleep.
Concentrate on those close pleasures.
Devotion adheres to substance
strong enough to support it,
yet resistant enough to cling with a static reaction.
