Silvery: A Haiku

Burning morningstar
Did you see you saving me
From the sleepless night

Thanked

Do you smile satisfied
Having ruined a ravaged heart

Do you laugh with the light
While my hope drips from your hands

And at evening’s flat end
Do your windows weep of me

No
From the lungs
To the ether
To Kingdom come
Can you know what that is
May it be you can not

At 4:01a
I finally yawned aloud
You, sir, now bore me

Something ceremonial
Should there be
Some semblance
Of solidarity

Twofold testimony
To these times
If entrusting
These lives

Dear crazy asphalt
Lead away from my space now
I said jicama

You forget the purple
You forget the soft

You forget the purple and the soft

You decide to trust
You decide to smile

You decide to trust and to smile

I wonder if I can be found
At the perfect
I here, there with you
When you think you are crumpled
In the dark
And lost to the light

No
I need not wonder
I know
I was gifted
This cape
And in Summer you were born

Your pitter-pattered
Rising, falling breaths of love
All I need ever
