“My eyes crinkle into crescent moons
and sparkle like the stars.
Gold flecks dance and twirl
while stories whirl
in their oolong pools,
carrying tales of the past
and hope for the future.”

“The man becomes a web
and his shadow becomes a spider.
It’s not that his life passes to the shadow—
but a tipping happens
as in an hourglass,
and there’s suddenly a new order
to the life he never knew was shared.
That night a cricket kills himself in the man.”

“Cocoon
cocooned in
winter white
I slip beside you
breathe deep
if you listen
you can hear the snow
change
shift slow to spring
poised for melt
cloaked under
white winter
I lie beside you
breathe out
if you listen
you can hear
wet wings unfurl
like petals
ready to be
born”

“Stationary"
The moon did not become the sun.
It just fell on the desert
in great sheets, reams
of silver handmade by you.
The night is your cottage industry now,
the day is your brisk emporium.
The world is full of paper.
Write to me.”
― The Veiled Suite: The Collected Poems
