i am the other.
the mother and the brother.
branches of a tree.
tree belief
the air cool and brisk.
the room naked with peeled trees.
no trees, no relief.
ice man cometh
his name is white frost.
lurking in the streets all night.
his touch cold as ice.
a way with all
in the event of snow
say under the sheets all day.
pray it goes away.
bone dry
the night is weary.
the sky a black river high.
the earth dry as bone.
lingering goodbyes
the splendor of spring
lingers in the autumn air.
haunting our goodbyes.
