title "around the white"














red polka dot
wrinkled sheets

sunny days
strung-out

a necklace of
sweat beads

around the white
neck of a flying
angel

over the blue
chalked
sidewalk

cracks and all

i like

the sliver
of a silver moon

gooey
crust of pie

dancing to
a familiar tune

and looking
into your eyes

love is


love is in
warm breath

in
what we
can not see

the force
that drives
particles
into galaxies

and you
into her arms

take me,

dear love,

from this
lonely place

and hold me

in

your sweet

embrace.
