Hide and seek

The playful one
     hiding in myriad dancing sparks,
     exploding trails of possibility –

We seek, confident,
     but confound finding with naming:
     lepton, superstring, quark...

We hide from pain and loss;
     the pierced one seeks:
     consenting to the robe's tugged hem,
     the forlorn hope,
     that fearfully and wonderfully endures.
