earth

cover the blue night
with day’s tattered and torn sheet.
whisper lullabies.

earth’s shongololo
i smell you in the damp soil.
but you are not here.

song outside window
bursting from winged melodies.
a color of sound.

the hovering spear
on vibrating feathered wings.
a fisher of fish.

low skies with deep thoughts.
black birds darting through white brains.
blue skies heard dreaming.

black cat on the prowl
looking for a fight tonight.
dread on tooth and claw.
