Sun drips
on leaves

not the backyard variety
but the trembling kind

the kind
that weld night-time
intermissions to
the roof of the mouth

sonnet-filled
evaporation
reveals
the timely concealment of
a very, weary
inanimate object
at the brink

just enough hip
to be woman

just enough wild
to be frontier

~
Now,
This moment,
Que sera sera,
The next moments are not to be seen.

nivek 7d
one star in the East
peeking through cloud

so many miles away
-a love like no other.

Emma
serpent eats its tail,

time weeps in endless circles,

forever undone.
nivek 7d
steel blue, a racing tide
waters disappearing
over the horizon.
nivek 7d
the wind is in the West
-the sycamores bounce
-elastic their survival.
nivek 7d
the last day will be a last tomorrow
and yesterday will no longer be a memory.
