blurring bright colors.
a race of rabid rabbits.
chewing up the earth.
smiling sun
thick as sirocco.
cotton swabs smudging the blue.
the whole world smiling.
dying faster
gray ribbons of loss.
tin cans racing to dead end.
faster to your death.
mandela’s mandala
ninety five theses.
you sold no indulgences.
embraced a nation.
strawberry fields
inside the red heart
lies the sweet pulpy tissue.
rapt in symphony.
bone chimes
my clattering bones.
tied by threadbare frayed sinew.
singing in the wind.
