Farewell to 2023 | cusp

a verse for my sixteenth summer.

Through these listless crowds and carousing seasons

I searched for him, and the sacred unique

until arcs of fire

flew above us

and

— momentarily —

that person emerged from beneath the glimmer

just as

how soft rains fall without reason.
