A time forest banter


Footsteps sitting on the stoop
Watching each other
The garden bed matches her dress
And the wall matches her dog

Colloquially potted, the banter is a time forest
Sightless, by their own dust
Finds an imp at its end

I mailed him to us
In an envelope
Sealed with sounds like public park’s
Improbable danger held softly
In works and days of hands

Inside of that beating flight,
A chime rhymes the wind
Slow behind a tumbling flower sound

Beneath jet fuel innards
Of a cloud
Every leaf is a black hole

See more than
Blushing grass

Under the step you take
