Momentary Valentine

That is our life of which
we have often spoken
between catastrophes
during violent wipe-outs
in one way flourishing
later in another knowing
all we do now builds on
what our idea of I is
not as trees are in a forest
standing up to go nowhere
though there are pros & cons
and everyone gets one moment
of radiance around which
his whole life can wobble.
