Once I saw a solar eclipse.
Like dusk at midday
the sun darkened
to New Moon black
...
Do you ever stare
into the eyes of a beautiful soul
and wonder how many memories they hold?
How many thoughts they've had of you
...
Laced with eloquence;
she glides along the dusty riverbed,
One blood rose in her hair and the funeral flower in her hand.
Ebony trails lash at the flaky ground
...
Etched into these pages
Live lines my soul exhaled
Breathless words
Thought in shape
...
I wonder why this angel
is able to fly.
Light and pure
he may be
...
Pale berries fade to bright
Leaves green whisper autumn
Creasing brown and crisping – falling,
July parts with Summer sudden as fright.
...
Woman stops at a window
below a blood-orange sky,
Watches drinkers sip from china
cups, tuck crumbs into napkins,
...
A blood-slice high in
black grows fat as an orange
to a full blood moon.
