1-

fortunate men
sleep sound,
feet wrapped
in linen
---------------------------------

2-

all is in synch
when love happens
to comment,
half full, partially
void, entirely
sentenced,
parsed like wind
without current.

---------------------------------

3-

there is an ardent sunrise
beneath the maple
trunk. it rises
when dew
weeps
on grass
blades
---------------------------------

4-

often
bad habits
need breaking
like snapped
twigs
---------------------------------

5-

there is no music
when hearts
cease beating
---------------------------------

6-

moods mirror
night sky's
moon
filter.
love
sings
arias to
spring lillies.
sleep quiet to the
sound of river's wave, each
crest, the rest of pleasant pulse.
---------------------------------

7-

we awaken,
cocoons tied.
silken threads
untwine
with soft
tugs.

---------------------------------

8-

think beginnings
of star eyes, rain
on iris
smile
---------------------------------

9-

wisdom allows
smoke to deceive
vision on occasion
in order to determine
clarity

---------------------------------

10-

four degrees
latitude, peripherally
positioned,
eyesight wanes,
eagles touch
down, talons
withdrawn.
---------------------------------

11-

thank you
for time,
sleep,
great
passion,
cries
now

---------------------------------
12-

puffed
out poofs
barrage
into barrier
walls,
each pane,
a martyr.
---------------------------------

13-

throw
bricks
televisions
swivel
chairs
hit stone
tables with
broken
spirits
until
angels
resurface
from ash
---------------------------------

14-

kenetic
molecules
fuel
dual
memory

Close the universal door
Watch the crow fly
