Poise

Amy Bonner

I MUST step

From star to star

Amid the shadowed planets

That hang in the profound deepness

Of bottomless space,

With thin clouded draperies

Filming about my feet

In eddies of motion.

My path is as wide

As the pageantry of worlds

That fling themselves out

In the dance of fettered motion;

And I shall stride

As though all were still.
