(2) February 25, 2010: One Exact Belief

ONE EXACT BELIEF

Collapsing lapse of lazy days
  Relaxing by the fires,
The mind in shards regards the flames
  Of telescoping spires,
And asks itself why reason wanes
  In ramping up desires.

Containing rain in bottled tears
  Denying every grief,
The body dressed in tawdry means
  And modes correctly brief,
Awakens on a string of beads
  With one exact belief.
