The New Hot Thing is Cold Dinner for Lunch (alternate title: Lots of musings on death and all it’s forms)
If I could ask the divine for one thing
it would be the mystery,
the surprise, the cool balm
the day brings, the warmth of the sun,
the rumbling of my stomach
Grass seeds slumping easterly
towards the ice melting breeze
Dandelions are my favorite this
Year, their distinct phases
Their spears, their flight
Like tarot suits
Representing everything in their
Changes
All possibilities, all
Magic, all swords and Wands and Cups and Coins
In my dream I’m devouring the
flowers and becoming the leaves
Anger and strife are the darkness of night,
The chrysalis of
Time
forcing my shape
into one which will fly
