Our wishes climb
on snowflakes,
reaching for distant stars—
my frozen breath
...
The glow
in her eyes…
I watch the sun fall
into distant lands
...
In a candlelit forest
I sketch the faces
of ancient trees...
my brand-new notebook
...
fortune teller...
the lights of a distant train
shimmer on the rails
...
miscarriage...
the dark space between
a crescent's points
...
on our first date
we search the sky
for UFOs—
this flicker of light
...
fireflies swirl
in the old mason jar
between my hands
the silence inside
...
I see myself in her,
yet, she is nothing but stone
at the bottom of a dark well
in the rain
...
