An Angel


                 comes to you
                                    by dream
beckoning
                 from the other side
of sleep 
                        a hand 		across
                  the divide
pursued                         by a star

Or
       stilled in traffic
you pause
                             and hear 	your breath
caressing	
                             your name
with love 
               somewhere 
                                   below
your bones
shepherding 
                     your 		loss
before you even know it

		flightpath out
				 and in
				(and in)
birth
of who you are
