Eye

Particle-catcher,
cunning collector of stuff for
arrangement later.

Light, to some, has body
enough to hold a monument's centuries

this rare gift to see illusion solid.

It can be touched -
it will be - in a sphere of theatre
where all spills out electric
the sun's collapse imploded to a spot -
colours on the brain.

One article of faith -
the order of light is the order of things
in this life of shapes

the stutter of neon springs thoughts,
the arc of a candle may show all that is.
