once again

I indulge

the twist

of gold and ruby

along the banks

of twilight

*

via the sparrow

melancholia

finds C major

*

road to home peeling skin in the boneyard

*

is this

how tigers

claim ground

as theirs

the lick

of winter

across my

bare neck

*

time travel

in my hands

a photo of mother

before the cancer

over the lake

still a sucker

for a compliment

lush quietude

just being

with my being

another trash bag has been filled, but I'm no closer to relief

unbecoming you

I become

an abstract

*Published by The Other Bunny on 2/4/19

those secret places

like the ones we find 

in our dreams

they have a way

of bringing us home

faster than cars
