Unmoored (for a Dutch painter)

A blushing blue light
full of purpose, full of spite.
Transfixed like an ocean
of ingratitude—

echoes and indifference.

I make my peace
with a piece of an
incomplete puzzle. 
Severed moments

separated by grief,

refracting a fraction
of truth. Resist the urge
to extinguish light for the
sake of a narrative.

No one reads anyway.
