wabi-sabi
the cracks begin to show and flawless floors
are not what shift and shatter here
but fear a frangible tear gold sun-strands
threading a chemtrail-crazed sky
vaporous cottons of cloud white wadding
expanding internally blood-spotted strings
strangling the breakable blue
did you think a forever could ever be through
your voice through the mist and how it echoes
to nothingness unfinished not home
was I ever at home in the bowl of your arms
with the smarm and the charm the bowl dashed
to the flawed floor smashed
and all the pretty pieces floored temporarily unglued
how shards of morning piece the pieces together again
sun stitching unravelling seams of dreams
a healing gilding spooling in veins
repairing the fault lines of rift and how we drift
to finish right back where we begin
