It’s not easy.
You might look at the stars and see them
and see they are alive.
You might look at people and flowers
and see them.
You might look at pain
and see it.
You might feel like a rabbit in an empty hall.
You might create something
when you’re inspired

only in appearance
always at the brink of something.
You may want to show
what nobody wants to be shown

And yet you know it’s important
incredibly important.
And yet you want to tell us
until you tell no more
how the sun shines on corn
and the moon on an insect
in every detail.
