your hop, chirp, trust and companionship
where the present tries to perch with its claws
clinging to thin air

a little heart beating with my heart
a soft warmth so familiar yet so alien
prying memory’s casements

W. B. Yeats knew well

wondering at the strange heart infusing its rhythm

charred remains of continents, cities, belongings
another an indelible perfume at the edge of memory
too sweet, too bitter

Yeats wondered
At the relation between Knowledge and Power
Assimilation of wisdom at god’s burnout intensity
Rudra’s ruinous steps masking Vishnu’s intelligence
And Human incapacity

Are we incidental only
Bundles of sentience subject to recombinant accidents
