it's not a moth
touching
the inter-lacking
mediating
artifact
               of
finger tips
   merging with
the knuckles...
like rain...
among snowfall...
to counter:
hail.

his or her:
supposed,
leisure,
activity,

piano trickle....
and thus...
a polyphonic
hush;
some
seance of
a candle light...
nuance...
   napkins...

napkins....
the dead before the roomed
or, bedded.
