pour through me
a vial of moment’s pause
filtration
a tarnished beam of truth
which nuanced,
arrives home at last

  7. A pause doesn't seem like much to ask--but the word "vial" in there has an ominous sound. We have to check the ingredients of truth carefully ... nuance may do the trick. Nice and spare Poem.

    Truth finds a way, I believe - but not without vigilance. Well put.
