Shiver Me

 I marvel
Will you always look little to me 
Loving recklessly
Moving with abandon
Dancing the Worm 
Without care of the bruises 
Both eyes big and thinking
What good will the wily do you
I wonder 

Proofless

 Faith again
In Ourselves and the thing guiding this Us
You’ll find the rock
At the center of me
Spinning still

Faith in my hands in your irreverent hair
The earnestness with which you count
Each act of my spine
Hands together applauding
At last faith

Safe!

 I’m sorry never seems precise

When the sunrise fades too quickly

Into the waiting arms of 6:38am clouds

I will not so utter the words

Or promise tomorrow will be better 

For I know the brilliant was glad for today

And that I was awake to see it at all
