Death is taking a break here ─
arms of bone folded behind head
it looks comfortable with legs crossed
a smiley face mask would look good to wear
except for the show of ribs, cage like
where a tiny bird flutters, frightened

Dusk leaps in tall shadows
darkness steals away all forms
seeping in one great present void
where sings the sound of a faint warble

A 'Glory Hole' is a glass makers way of accessing molten glass inside a working furnace; literally a hole in the door of the furnace..

I am relieved to be
in your life again I am
a bit
lost for words
I freak
already
My inspiration is not with me somehow. I used to flow in my writing, but it's not like that right now.

we are all imaged by those
who would see us at our best

along with the paint that
inevitably chips away
in yearly frosts
and summer
droughts

because we will remain
—as always—
the easel upon which
God was inspired to
draw us...

needs no answers
questions are boomerangs
