She lifted her hands
to the sky in praise, but all
she received was dust

He fears that one day
he’ll be nothing but dust swept
out from the corners

4.
Some words you could mix
up, and it would be okay –
words like “dusk” and “dust”

like to believe that their kids’
future can be held

who thought that fire was beauty –
until he saw dust

I’ll nourish my sun
flowers, and watch them grow from
a bed of coarse dust

secrets in boxes

know your words fell like dead dust
on my wounded ears

they would be about the world’s
living dust layer

12.
Open your mouth to
the glorious rain, let it
soak away your dust
