Miki Byrne Poems

Delirious


In fever dreams the monsters came.
...

Desperate Flight..

He saw her from afar.
She was his bird of paradise.
...

Dining Gaffe.

Conversation ebbs and flows.
Equal emphasis from each person.
...

Disabled Woman Swimming.


She moves with aching slowness.
...

Discovered When Walking.


Leaf-mould dark as coffee grounds
...

Dozing While it Rains.

In the half-land when sleep has crept close
but consciousness still lingers. Images scissor.
...

Dragon Gate.

Against the ferocity of the Yellow river,
fish leap.
...

Dragons Breath.

A Dragon flies. Raven black.
Exhaling benevolent plumes.
...

Drawn Back.


Unseen.
...

Drumming Without Sticks.

She doesn't wear jewellery when she drums.
No rings on the fingers or the thumb.
...
