in velvet corners
waiting as a bud
to sip in cold arms

slither sounds, supine spaces
silent strikes, sublime stars

in two worlds

If Yesterday Were a Door

if yesterday were a door
would you find her hand
where the sunset slid

if yesterday were a door
would you hold her smile
where the memories hid

Flight

acres on the palm
when fears grow thin
flights on a rainbow
of circular time

A Bite of Moon

doors melt in my eyes
fishes shiver in fright
if rabbits could count ducks
leaves would spread smiles
