Full of Fire
by
Radiance Angelina Petro

Even as a we sludge through gristle and gravity,
the imagination craves bodies—bones plaited with muscle,
changeful eyes, unpredictable, ungoverned—full of fire. Our song
is our well-being, guided by the air, guided by righteousness,
thrown into oceans, rippling over ponds–
if you do one thing in your life,
let your life create a stir.
