Empty exit
Music made with tears, /
dissonance flows over me. /
Words clang: bullet, heart.

Sometimes
Sometimes, what I see, /
heavy yet light in the sky, /
are moments of you.

Dog walk
A fall walk at dusk, /
tethered to the edge of light, /
two dogs and me.

Light as a child’s wish /
painted across the blue sky. /
I paint a wish, too.

Two chairs
We shall find ourselves, /
two chairs by an ageless sea, /
