Folds of the Mind

Folds of the Mind

As the moonlight hazily sleeps on lily white walls,
And molton dreams drip from street lamps outside.
Darkness dances merrily in corners; in alleyways,
Just as our memories delight in folds of the mind.

Words lay on lips, waiting, breathing and sighing;
And glistening like frost on burnt amber leaves.
Copper and brittle, fragile and delicate, whisper;
in their thousands, millions, for nobody but me.

Night is safe from day, I am safe from tomorrow,
Until the sky, shatters the glass to melt the walls.
Life, naked as new paper, begins another chapter.
As the sun swallows whole, stars strung like fireflies.

They cut through...

To Be My Quiet

An offering of tender recognition

If we never chant stillness away,

like an aged sweater...
