I drove all night
Through the song of wind
and the drum of vibrant rain
The dance of my being
soaked to the spirit’s core
anticipating once again seeing you

It was so good to have it all behind me,
until I realized there was nothing ahead.

Water plants; feed sourdough starter; write note; silently, gently, kiss her farewell

On a scale – one to ten
just how good was that chow fen?

Rewrite of an earlier nonsense
YUM!
In the cold before crystal, a peal of light
Blinding blue sound, between hollow and whole
Faraway caws
The source now remembered
To heed it he did
Heeded
A moment passed
Past
Long two
to belong
In the cold ere crystal

See those colorful orbs out there? Watch…a little bit longer…
Oh wow! They…
Yep, they start to people!

I look down to see impressions everywhere
So I dive to rub smooth on their contour
Then I adhere here

Though it is cold out the sun is still strong. I am amazed
at the amount of mist that has gathered despite the frost.
I return indoors, greeted by a body-rush of warmth, and
familiar scents, heavier now, making their way through
the chilled air I hold yet in my lungs. My eyes are still
filled with the intensity of outdoor light, unadjusted,
all I can see is the golden flame of your candle still burning
in this 16th hour.

Just like the girl on the tapes I order un carafe d’eau
hoping it will solve for thirst I have
If I smoked I’d light one now
strike it nonchalant
With just a touch
of distant stare
to show the wheels
still turn
Circumspect to be
less than
ordinary
I have somewhere to be
so I say I must be going now
Je dois partir maintenant
To you lovers
at your tables
I nod to you
in silent unknowing
Your gaze on my back
falls for far too short
a moment

I have a roll of invisible tape that I use
to wrap un-purchased gifts.
