The hounds of fear nip at winter heels,
whelping doubt and baying at the moon.
Cocoon prayers whispered across the fields
of becoming; this dark of the light is
contextually contrasted. i am little and
young against the ages, something loose
and rattling in the box of reality and
afraid, fleeing the dogs of war.
i write post-it note prophecies and
crumple them, building a nest in
the trees, a mother's womb nearer the sky,
for when the sun comes it comes
first to the birds on high.
