without seeking shelter

          for james

without seeking shelter from that exposed ledge
look with confidence
your mortality straight in the eye

when you go to sleep 
may your instinctive curiosity 
breed liquid dreams 

you're not aware of it but 
the ancestors walk with you daily
it is not just the lonely I 

turn your hunger into listening 
your tongue will soften 
its desire to fill space

from a place of togetherosity 
will our imperfections 
move towards wisdom
