Divining

Not just on the wall--

the writing's on the sky,

the river, the bridge, your hands.

Wouldn't you love to believe

all those blue and red lines,

make a map, and if only

you could read those lines,

you might know where to go

from here? Yes, we're lost

and wrinkled and surely doomed,

but god, in this moment

between concerns, isn't it beautiful,

this place where we wander,

this hour when gold gathers

just before the plum of night?
