Wait

The red-winged angel
is here to guide you.

Beauty does not come whole,
but in slivers.

Searching detail for detail,
flaws do not fracture beauty.

Age devours age until release,
and then becomes the radio
of souls.

Count on one hand the number
of times you have truly heard.
Countless moments spent
searching the dial.

There is a beauty in such work.
Waiting for the broadcast
is everything.

Recognizing the devoured whole,
the sliver of the wait
is spanned.

Age counts untouched hands,
counts motives of the heart.

On the path to angelic kingdoms,
roadblocks appear.

See the span, vista to be
reached for and arrived at.

Bridges take
the leap from lovers.

Jamming signals
censor pain.

Slowly turn the dial
wide open.

Wait for
what happens.
