Water
Take a beat, a breath /
and then follow the water /
to its beating source.

Late
I shed my warn clothes /
and stand before the stars, naked. /
My tailor is late.

Cat, no hat
One cat. One evening. /
No hat. No children. No rain. /
Alone in kitchen.

Free floating radicals
The clock floated free; /

left their roles behind.

Wings
Melting or hardened, /
Icarus learned too late: /
“Wings will weigh me down.”

Over
Languid dog reclines, /
drooping like an old flower /
over the bed’s edge.
