Dancing
Dancing through the air, /
Rock doves flutter toward earth. /
Gravity and wings.

Early doves alight, /
seeking summer sustenance. /
cooing and competing.

Touch me not
Touch not what I touch, /
hoping only to feel worlds /
and none of yourself.

Old punches
Pained grunt, dishes break. /
Punches stream as old muscles /
struggle with new tools.

night releases our shadows, /
borrowed daylight ghosts.
