Ganglion of Lightnings • 28 January 2011

Sri Durga Bhavan

 

Looking for your light,

I went out:

     it was like the sudden dawn

     of a million million suns,

 

     a ganglion of lightnings

     for my wonder.

 

     O Lord of Caves,

     if you are light,

     there can be no metaphor.
