poets fathom tides, dreams, death–
all in a night’s work.

of words slowed to last, to serve–

piercing veils for story’s sake–
Heart, the guide and claim.

lady clare
Forlorn, as if the lake
rose to meet the moon halfway,
as if light on petals, mourned.

Vertigo in gold,
soul baited aloft, unmoored–
sleep rounded with dreams.
