Biometrics

 

Some of the patina
of days gone by
rubs off on you

​

something
of the thumbprint of time
leaves its distinctive mark

​

something of days
to come too

​

when we come 
to ourselves
and to one another

​

by way of natural selection

​

by way of gravity
and rootedness

​

while the gravity of grace
remains rootless and unbound.
