Transcendental Sonnet #1298:
One Flame

So much to transcend so much to overcome
So far from heaven and so far from home
But have we not made it this far already?
We can get there if we just hold steady

And where is there and who are we and why?
The answer my love is written in the sky
All I know to do is look up at the moon
So many questions with answers so few
But as the moon waxes so shall we as soon
Even as it has waned for me and you

Carried in and out and borne upon the tide
Up and down on the insane carousel ride
We turn and return we wax and wane and learn
To live and love as one flame even as we burn
