sonnet one hundred sixty two

i catch words and signs
and pain in degrees, from
things that hold the
cold and fumbling silence

of a difference in time,
etched on the shoulder of
faith, a lasting lash of
leaves heaving as nocturnal

atoms find its way through
perennial shores aching for
translation, needing a sort of

conclusion or demise -
so what do you give it in
this merciless height?
