across this solitary landscape
of cold uncertainty
we are a wild wind
...
There once was a family Weiss
Who thought it would be very nice
To climb really high
And mingle with sky
...
I'm steadfast as a train
Trundling through a summer rain
Or winter drift. I never veer,
For my track is laid out rail by rail,
...
sifting through this fog
boundary ceases, hoary
thick indifference
...
On the one hand,
no matter the breadth
of composition, our flesh
...
Mortality's been on my mind.
Our story is quick and unkind:
At once we are born
fulfilled and forlorn.

Along purls a girl named Emmalene
with her toes afloating in-between.

Our Courtship was a 64-count box of crayons –
one gorgeous array of promised perfection
that came with a built-in sharpener.
...
Momentarily,
we become the beautiful axis
whirling as a dervish
in the melting clock
...
"Beauty surrounds us
but usually we need to be walking
in a garden to know it." - Rumi
