Fraying dress hems
Disturbances gagging
Alien visage, grounded near fires
At the end of snowball bushes

Ashes charring the edges
Over glazed mouths
Of haunt-like words
Pacing about, like little lost birds

Burning away breath as we knew it
Black-and-blue marks on the ground
Passing along extra moons
None of which we found

Some malfunction, I’m thinking
Eating face forms drowning
Thrusting emotions to and fro
Over nights risen, dark & lonely now

Where is the hillside that we climbed?
It’s yellow light halo…diffused
Cordwood stacked on the porch
No fireplace to use

Hallways unpainted
Shadows feeble on the wall
Dreams wrapped in another napkin
Rubbing another belly softly

He is her left hand
The wick of a lantern
Where alternate doors burst open
Different sultry mouth of directions
Firing the smokehouse

What a picture -- this one penetrates like smoke, couldn't keep all of it out (or in) even if I tried.
