I Feel My Soul Returning

I feel my soul returning
to a shimmering state


golden threads are in the

air:
they can be gathered


in a chapel of snow invisibly

you watch with Quixote


through the long night

enacting the fables
ridiculed on the news:


waiting to find again

under an unmisted sky:


the jeweled windmills
turning

under the jeweler's light
