Analysis of A Note To Time
Refortifying myself…
I expected less and less
From you
My inner world unfolding
All window dressing cast aside
My spirit entrusted to
Those moments still to come
The truth now able to settle
And learn
My secret voice conscious of
What my curiosity and reflection
—have yet to see
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2016)
