kissing is a game
played to entice
to tease
maybe to taste
it is not a promise

no lover beside me
to enjoy the sun seeping through
the black blinds of my bedroom window
I open them to greet the day
The city is already awake
below me ten . . .

a voice of caution, the clear siren,

Edge slips away
Madly, sun grabs the edge of the roof.
The edge slips away. Roofs after roofs
doused in red, witness a death. Comes the dusk;

Walk a long desert.
The gold of a sky
Eternal, liquid.

Both your lonely feet.
They call those bushes snake flowers.
The breeze . . .

Reality of a vacation
It falls, dignifiedly sloth, deliberate;
it falls while we listen to the stream, the tune.
The harmony embraces us; the rich hues

A death in our family
The wounds received, the wounds inflicted
hardly matter. Ash is in the air.
Rust of the season drops out, a leaf.

The tiny feet of a squirrel on a tin roof;
nothingness is a corrugated top.
You look up from there, a frightened life;
a squirrel, not playful; in search . . .

Words fall short before a rising sun.
They are nothing to the gust of rays,
Giddy they lower their heads
On the green grass.

I want to fly into the sun,
I want to be free,
Let me go,

In an afternoon of untimely shower
Mind falls out of the benumbed fingers.
A winter of crazy white on the screen.
underneath is an open road . . .

The marvels of ancient . . .

Her paws, soft, are upon fallen gold
Of rustling foliage. Cold sundown
Turns around to a shadowy cottage.
A cottage with a coach and love-strokes

The storm on the northern sky
He eyes the yellow painted door,
Fingers quivered on touch of
The ancient woods and red bricks.

midst a moonless night with rabid dogs barking.
