leveled by loss at the
foot of whose
cross..

my heart with
feather

dipped in
blood
of

man made
flood.

I’ve only ever
really..

stumbled thru time’s
debris
on

quest for sturdy
stance
and

though i yet
falter
its

on lighter
feet-

in awkward
dance.

hunger gazes
into

two succulent
pools
of

wild honey and
drool-

sponged from lips
in vain
and

tongued from tip before
cone drips
again.

petals wilted but
not dead
so

don’t toss us out
just yet,

‘less you’ve found a
glow within
snow

warm enough to stir
new growth.

this shameless
bed

begs for your bold
yet shy

hand pressed to our
reflection

bleeds red like each
breath stands
erect.

today i’ll take
it light..

only to find my way
back to
night.

should i tease
truth

from
treacheries?

..refuse to
stay

buried within
chest

caves under
regret.

hands tremble then
recede

like my body’s
braille

of language
failed

to mend intent
unsaid.

where are you
when

elsewhere and
scared

that you were
followed
there?

treading time’s blend
of clear and
clouded

pond fiercely
stirred
then

settled as if never
disturbed.
