Days 35 and 37, 2024

Day 35 (Friday)

don’t worry
the fire that takes it all
will at least
be warm cast
amazing shadows

Day 37 (Sunday)

the sun
the sun
the sun

this is what
wanting Dad
to come home
felt like

cold light creates these beautiful dying worlds

there is this short shining sun
on this, not yet the shortest day
the shape of things bent light
oozing through blinds
kicking up dust
reconstituting stars

Day 115, 2023

the dirty river runs its course
under crisp slice of moon:
my pipe bowl glows, a new sun
for a universe to be born
and then return to ash
