UNFOLDING A DIAMOND

UNFOLDING A DIAMOND

To dream

to sleep

to seek a question

not for an answer

an explanation

folding the layer

to awaken a diamond

not for a place

as a thing held

that eternal witness

that opening dream

that unfolding diamond

that explaining question

presenting as witness

a whisper, a dream as place

that question

as answer

that unfolded diamond

a dream

a whisper

a sleep folded

a question

upheld as witness

in the place

of answer

true explanation

in a diamond
