cave painting
coursing through your blood
a suicide
albino crocodiles peer back
through the swamp of time
below a thick canopy
an orchid feeding
off other plants
a jar of soil saved
from the old country
smashed lenses
a pack of wolves
lead the way
faint flames
in the eye of a raven
who snatched the sun
after the meal
the children find god
no way to rinse off
the unwanted touch
of his hand
recidivism
you put the candle out
memories fade
in a hall of rock and sand
dusk falls early
