not enough window
for the moon—but its face seeps
along the floor
not enough window
for the moon—but its face seeps
along the floor
what’s the difference
between creativity
and what’s left behind?
all this time searching—
among the shapes I form—
for my heart
though a
stranger, I still might merit
an infant’s smile
pine will last this
and every winter—sap and
fuel married
believing
the unseen—zebras as
articles of faith
hosta leaves—limp
flattened, celery-colored—as
pale, almost, as snow
foggy markets
crowded with shoulders—fish
smelling gone
being overfull—
sorry reply to racing
so long, so hard
sunrise is almost
peach—the ashen seep of smoke
sets it off
