Rilke's wine



bitter German wine

grows sweet with the

savoring, digesting slowly to become

drunk with images

dreaming my life into hidden memory,

unfurling and folding to rise as a prayer

to the vaulted constellations of

a domed cathedral,

incense drifting to rise above

the smoldering evanescence.
