Grace
One step back to accept
Three forward into cement
That sparkling exemplar, your name
rots and rusts
You
straining to coalesce
Nails dug into the doorframe
Diamond dusts
sprinkled into the blood from your broken nose
Rhubarb
Bury my head in your pillow
Inhale
your quite snug sight,
under cloth
and light
of clasped buttons and
red lace panties flung at the door;
bolt pressed into the frame tightly

My pleasure. I didn't really know what to say. I moved to higher elevations recently and now the sky is clear most nights. Before a month ago, I don't think I'd ever seen them before, only heard about them. It was great to see them up close.
