waxing away

may you be that wick

that dips

and dunks

and dives

into the depths

of all your lives

here and now

there and then

coating itself in wax

with experiences

and layers

of once molten

and then hardening

layer

upon layer

experience 

upon experience

knowing always

and at any time

you may be a-lit

from within

or sparked

from without

the wick

that lives 

inside the core

of the candle of your life

you may

at anytime

melt away what layers

no longer serve

you may alchemize

and transmute

in your near transcendent

incandescent

illuminated

awakening

the liberated

you

once again

the wick

the flame
