Conscience lies buried beneath last winter’s choices
hibernating for lack of choice or assumed helplessness
murmuring through frost as if remembering a path once taken.
I follow its faint warmth
awaiting a call when
a moment of thaw becomes truth
and truth becomes direction.
Awakening of Conscience

‘…awaiting a call when
a moment of thaw becomes truth
and truth becomes direction.’ Brilliant.
