Threshold
Today speaks decay. /
Memory echoes the past. /
Threshold whispers, “Why?”

Journeys
Sadness, hope, and smiles, /

sadness, hope, and smiles.

Cauldron
Through the evening sky, /
without wings, these cauldrons fly, /
roiling, rumbling by.

Cool
In the evening cool /
they gather, the machines, /
their red eyes glowing.

Graveyard
Do not wrong the dead. /
The graveyard is full of fools /
who in life found none.

Failure
Is their poetry /
in failure? Bleak winter sun /
pockets its promise.

Looking
Looking backward /
No one remembers the rain /
Only the hammers.
