Bend (Light Play)

Bend reality

back to her proper form;

unbend hostile devotions

and redirect their focus.

There is still time to find

their warmer selves.

Bend everything

in perpetuity;

it is all light play,

anyway.

Bend light,

but do not break it.

Do not

rupture yourself

for ill reasons.

Instead,

rupture rightly. 

Break open

and out

off and 

away from

all which 

no longer serves you.

A civil breaking takes time.

Bend time

unbend harsh sounds

meant to pierce.

Bend notes and intentions

towards a whole and new

kind of love.

Bend the light,

but do not break it;

you, dear, 

are too fascinating

to be fractured again.

But if you do break, 

break as the dawn;

ascend into/something new.
