The Next Step


We struggle against things ending
  as if familiarity would save us
    from ourselves,
      or from the necessary dividing,
        the leaving, the growing out-of, or in-to.
      It is a fearful moment, waking up:
    taking a step into the darkness
  and then having the darkness lift,
so you can see what has held you
in your sleep.
