city lights whores undress shadows in the alleys

defying gravity snail crawls up marigold stem

dark before dawn how quietly the lightning strikes

a kiss from a long departed soul

flash across sky etched in mind memories of family

excavate different shades of the dark

the peony deadlier in the dark

crime scene blood stains tell a tale

storm clouds yonder well and alive

dusk my thoughts trail the smoke
