"Some nights, stay up till dawn...."

"Some nights, stay up till dawn
As the moon sometimes does for the sun.
Be a full bucket pulled up the dark way
Of a well, then lifted out into light.

Something opens our wings.  Something
Makes boredom and hurt disappear.
Someone fills the cup in front of us.
We taste only sacredness."
