Sonder

Promises and threats
Change places at the threshold
Which we meander/stride across

You'll know and be known
You'll never die or see death
You are not alone

Each their own corner
Guaranteed from whence we stand
In this tightrope web

Switch turns on and off
For neither will see its end 
Nor state cease changing

Awake and aware
Of each life's complexity 
The old/new wineskin(s) burst(s)

On the return trip
Like breadcrumbs (red)wine stains stone(red)
Each drop worth its price 

For the lights fade out 
As the wineskin is emptied
Step by step to sleep....

"It must fit for each
Or I will be here again."
Claimed by sleeping tongues.
