grace anewA Poem by m.s.earlyin time, the motion linear, where now forever is being, the other thread pulled from my head unravels in mist and film, saying, "my friend, rest here. there is no lag beyond this state. we tongues have fruit and taste as much". in memories fading quick i reach into an envelope and read a letter that i never sent to a friend i loved richly, but its words are old and frail now i'm sure she must somehow know, but i fold the terms between the lines and move an inch or two. the space is drying, i'm levitating and waiting for grace anew.
