Right Energy by Lisa Jarnot
of the mammal that is
in the dark with the light
from the sea, musical,
in the rain, beneath the
tigers in the lamplight
with the flame, having

that are there, alight,
arrayed in light, arrayed
in what is light inside
itself, so spake it, this
array of autumn in the
trees, the curve of the
branch of the ship
that I love as I love of
its songs in its longing
