enough

By

because enough is insatiable— 

ourselves as invaluable 

sunlight lifting dust 

is not a miracle 

or the way the sea laps the shore 

and stars shimmer to the eye 

the power in our palms 

we believe is beyond us 

it’s light rivaling the sun 

our intelligence is not enough

—this is how humanity loses 

seeking satiation— 

the enough of self.
