A Clear and Sustainable
Appreciation of Reality
Was is not real.
It passed in the night and
Transformed itself into
That which is now.
Now is what we have.
It has grown from many
Nights of passings,
From fading away to
Transfiguration, to
Existence.
It has become what we know
And what we can trust.
It has become
Our everlasting.
That is what our love is,
That is what our life is,
Not was.
