Your bare back
framed by the window...
All the roses in my garden
are slowly wilting before me...
The river flows,
flows like a tear...
Let’s fly out this door
Into the bright air...
Ripe apples falling
Upon auburn crunchy leaves...
There must be a place
where the rain stops...
I tiptoe, hopping like
a blinded astronaut on...
I’m in my car.
Outside the heat is...
Crowd from the city
Come together by the sea...
Sometimes I sit down to write
But my hands are firm...
