hands clasped toward the light bottled fetus

beneath the burqua her red red mouth

trace of snow a television sky

holding my breath the dandelion

Sea of Tranquility the water strider's wake

snowfall the super-luminous darkness within

falling from the corner of your eye the Pleiades

tiger moon the red stripes across your back

after the firefly a deeper dusk

dripping bead by bead the last sermon
