words rust and disintegrate before they leave pale lips
Tag: haiku
bedside alley toes exhume the carcass of a beetle from darkness
stone insects follow the great divide and crawl across summer’s horizon
islands rearrange sand and tide shift in rhythmic response to a calling beyond
the full moon atop its seat of power swallows you whole with its queer gaze
the city traps you in liquid concrete and rushes you into the void
green fire replaces the rain dripping pretentious through the summer haze
hollowed side of moon grey and quiet citadels commune in the language of dust
silver fish leap mid flow and find sanctuary amongst purple clouds
the moon trades its madness for some borrowed light
