set to light

I Am Any Thing / that can be set to light— / consumed, the corpus of my / being transmuted to stars

I Am Any Thing out now in Space & Time

This poem was born both of pain and of hope. The pain of lives cut short, of repeated violence, of horrific videos on repeat–

The hope that objects of noise, protest set to music, as to a march, might kindle fire to light a beacon for times to come–
