sacramental wilderness
a constant un-
raveller re-
mains detached from
his sur-
roundings in
order to
cultivate the
requisite CHA-
os contained in a
tiny rite host
of dread............
The water mirrors
the sparrow's flashing shimmer.
A rustle of wings.
He hops and skips about with playful motion,
aquiver. Yet for him this is no game.
His eye is black, alert and bright with life.
Some drops of Sunlight.
On leaves, the dew of cobwebs.
Silvered spider silk.
At noon she weaves upon the withered leaves
embalmed and stilled by gusts of Winter wind.
A breath not born of death, but born of life.
The virginal sky
casts its light on all the earth.
Lights on the meadows.
Transparency is all that will remain.
What is transparency? A melancholic
and solitary voice that speaks of life.
Trail blazer
in the head
winds of the
coming of
change
Trailers in the
nights sky
Box glider
Acrobat
In flight
Merchant
sailor
The man in
the moon
Marooned
in the night
Enchantments
And the enchanted
Paper planes
And paper lanterns
A prayer on fire
A tear in the flame
Written in passage
Of the Lord's prayer
Book binder
and good bindings
Alone in the hazard
lights
A road fatality
Fight or flight
Taken pretty
Fright or fancy
Contact
Taken out
Spiralling in
Tail feathers
And the quill
of a raven
And a ravens
claw
Dipped in
indigo ink
Blotting papers
In a waste paper
basket case
Throwing darts
at the walls
Taken aim
The right of passage
Cupids bow and arrow
And a feather plucked
from the wing of an Angel
Good grace and God's speed
