Unfolded letters

Sunlight

since i am ^up here
it is sunny and i catch
the reflections:
the passage
of the brutal
and buoyant
onto glass
into eyes

another once, i saw the
same thing flit
like a flicked
fish scale
over slate
but it had hit another
quite white face

then (both times)
, i felt altogether
chosen and in place
in the cosmos
