Where there is nothing,
sooner or later something
surely must appear.

A Way Out

Jan 15

Debris floats in a backyard fountain.

 

Trying to breathe in this place,
close to the source of my grief,
while coins thrown in the wishing well
are glimmering and turning—
such madness!
I feel my right foot slip, and then my left,
something tightens in my chest.
Be still, my heart!
You will find a way out!

longing for something
other than these barren wastes
perhaps one blossom

something in the wind
cruel, ghastly and unkempt
screeching at my door
