Sleeping in the tender light of alone

      Sleeping in the tender light of alone
      My body made itself an army--
      My many minds alarmingly rebelled--
      My noisy dreams were tossing stones to hell:
5     What heaven bounced back? No echo tells
      Of tender any keeper. Attack. The sounds
      How solved, bending, holy, doving, proud
      Moved to the ways my unkept singleness still loved.
      Ronna Bunker & Gregg G. Brown
