Looking Out My Window From My Sickbed

Looking Out My Window From My Sickbed Longdead treeshadow Creeps across the face of a nurse-white house Immortalized in sunlight A mantis Stealthily Touches the shattered eye; A window at the bottom corner of the wall Makes it more aware I am watching it With cool interest To see how much it knows or cares About the spectator Watching Through the eye of its companion.

What a lovely name you have! Perfect for writing. I know it's been some time since you posted this comment, but be assured I wrote it long ago in the midst of some ailment. I'm fine now.
