her purple gown expanding
she's reaping joy where she grows
from bulbs abundance spreading
many coloured glow

If I were a plant I'd be
flowering - a peony
with ruffled red petticoats,
flirting with the sun.

The clock ticks ever louder
When sleep and I do our dance.
I argue that I need more -
Until the alarm.

Dodoitsu, a weird one
three lines of seven beat counts
give a sumptuous magic
for the last five beats

A festival of robins
foraging, feeding, flying,
flitting across my front lawn.
I spring to life too!

Lounging in the morning rays
beside a drying table
she bathes on an ottoman
and scrunches her nose

getting ready for bed
realizing grief has a
distinct smell as well—
after midnight rain

coming toward a love
that is largely unknown
my hands receive a
trembling poppy

at war with both

Te pienso todo el día
te veo y desespero
tú la calma me quitas,
pero no el sueño.

dazzling virtuosity
your touch on my skin

The moon above shimmers bright
As the stars twinkle softly
That’s when I miss your ass most.
No moon in my bed.

papers spread over
my work desk
a half-finished
soda stales
-
looking at each one
of my vitiligo spots—
slow crawl of time
and night
