what will
you do
with your joy?
will you
send it
outside
with your dogs
echoing through
the canyons at night
will you
swallow it
in that moment
when there
is no breath
at all
will you
leave it
hidden
for others
to discover
by chance
will you
give it
away
to anyone
in grief
instead
will you
invest it
in hope
of one
small impossible
miracle
will you
let it stay up
all night
listening to
the moon tell tales
of imminent winter
what will
you do
with this
your inexhaustible
indomitable
elusive joy
that is
your life
your light
