The chatter of leaves
Ebbs, swelling
In the cool breeze
Kissing my cheeks
Rubber soles scrape
cement riddled with pebbles
Shadows streaking across
Crisscrossing with light
Reach out your hand
And grasp nothing
Say something
Drown in this chatter
Blissfully

this figment
This slippery thing
A phantom whispering
Lurking, never bearing
It’s full weight

The sky bled
Like a blanket
Onto the trees
All its glory
Wind weaving
A rustling melody
Shadows pool
In deep crevasses
The hillside carves
Where the
Ice splintered
A soft blue glow

The nights freezing
The sky an eternal blackness
Like a reflection of obsidian
The cosmos twinkle and glow
Trees yawning on the horizon
Snow drifting, spraying
The wind whipping my face
Winter nights mysterious and quiet
A quietness that hugs me

The light faint, damp
In the dusty darkness
An eternal twilight
Trapped, feeling lost
Feeling placated
A coffin
I must
Escape

what is this
the need to scrub the suds
off of time
the pull to dust off
buried dreams of starships
and gusto
a gusto that
sounded a little like
I‘ll live
I don‘t know
what this is,
purpose?
how does it exist
outside of time?
untouched by money?
how do I know
what it is
what it says?

A fist full of sand
Soggy, foaming from the cold sea
And glass and shells like deposits of gemstones
I sculpt something like a home
The salty air whistles and bellow
The sun solidifies
The moon reveals the llulabys
Cooing in nothingness
The tide remolds, reshapes
I put my body between my home and the sea
I dig a trench, I fortify
Yet the water is frigid
My home erodes
And so it goes
I push sand only for
The tide to take the gems away
But one day
The sea left a gift
In its foam

Who are you
I almost kept the door firmly shut
And I kept it barely ajar
And you barged through the open window
Ha, so clever
Who are you
My love?
I ask this because I recognize who I am
The degradation fled
When you kissed my knuckles
And now I dream
Of your return

A hazy spring nap
The golden sunlight filtering
The dried herbs burning
My eyes heavy
Breathing slow like molasses
Dashes of honey green
A stupor taking hold over me
A stillness that buffers
The cruelty of the outside

people come in and out
of my life
like a shower of sparks
what is erased?
what leaves a brilliant streak?
forever
