wheel of sparrows
on birdseed ensō
I poured out back
winter laid at the mercy
of the spring
Lizzie Borden
trees stood side by side
a hundred and twenty years
no touching
car on cinder blocks
cat maternity ward
window down to flirt
moon spent the night
at your place one spring night
lost its car keys
a new year’s door
propped open for guests
fog comes in
these stairs to subway
people the fog descending
to ride in human light
the moon
forgets where it lives
stops me to ask
dreams make a movie
of things unmovielike
unhand me, it says
enter stagnant pond
to gleam as emeralds
duckweed jeweled necklace
trees pencil the highway
no one around for miles
ideas flock
birdseed ensō
in galactic spiral
poured from Big Gulp cup
