D E N C I T Y

the wild expanse
filed with metal baked autos
where the sky is an almond mellow
from parking lot totem lights

the sage wind is blowing
and filled with sweet coyote song
the range is ragged
white tipped
like a beuatitful saw
seratted for a mighty purpose

stars are flowing slow
in their stranges
out here the wind collects
sagebrush
and fills silhouettes with cacti
and josua trees

rich like a velvet red cake
all the love in calories
its worth sweet and icing
sweeter how it is to
want that intimacy with
self with others
how it is that the barbed tangles
keeps them away like the
roeses thorns protects the pretty
petals

this freezin night so still like a
hugshed breath the crystal
encapupsulation
beautiful like a frozen
crysallis waiting to break its
ice and spread its wings to dry
in a winters sun
glorius for adventure and flight

Whatever you write
wherever you place it

IT SINGS

its song
like the wind moaning
and squealing through
the tree of life,
this your Winter version
searing off our whiskers
and rendering them brittle
in the icy blasts.
