Broken Open

I have been released

Many times before

Although this sure

Feels like the big one

For several days, and nights

I have felt, and seen, a light

It is a light which I now call

The clear light of freedom


I tell you this as I listen

To Brian Eno’s Discreet Music

While I soak

In my morning bath

While I ease my shoulder pain

With the warmer water

And, with discretion being

The better part of valour


I won’t tell you

Of all of the circumstances

Which have brought about

This wonderful transition

Except to say, for I feel

That I must say something

So I will tell you that at long last

There was a letter
