The tarnish bends its chorales
into pathways at dawn.
The coalescence is ours.
               Rattle the will to raze
the days passing—
the throbs in our strides,
a glare between twists
before the turn into
descent.
               Grasp it whole.
Let it run and burst.

Fence
Cross the line to sway your self
in plain sight for whoever
has seen you embracing
the wrong face, the wrong touch,
the wrong utterances
and everything that transpires
in between. A merciless force:
the compulsion of the body
moving across the fence,
skin pressed against cold paint
in search of juncture.
The dance is long, circuitous.
