Be economical with your pain
Use it
As a constant
As a familiar refrain.
Hunts down and corners
Joy before she disappears
Faintly into whispers.
Forced restraint, cold swinging
Noon to dusk
In quiet sublimation
Weighty and in a dance
A patient animal.
In this I recede
and receive grace
Practice it, re-use it
and refuse it.
