Drifting

my face
my eyes 
swoop from
the 

sky 

as the pigeon 
with orange lids 
pecks at crumbs 
on cement.

my face 
is alive,
at all 
time 

it speaks,
limbs move,
fingers stretch 

can you see 
my face and 
on into 
time?
Or do you
just see page,
no words 



rise into air,
become a single
destiny.
burn with flames,
grow with eternity. 


my oh 
my 
all come inside.
Inside the rose

the pedals 
will keep us warm
