“Our interpreted world”
–Rainer Maria Rilke
They do move among us
Through us around us
Sometimes even are us
A putting on of clothes
We have an insight
A flash of light
Then fall away
An emptied face
Snagged on grace’s
Brief flame
An ember’s pause
Before lost to smoke
We are our angels
Lost to our world
