The Wrong Train
...London fog, harshly early with strained warning,
Looms all over the image of the hectic city
There’s the smell of mists and the taste of
Frozen rain gathered before dawn.

A violent release, a nightmare of a cathartic...

I know what happens, but nevertheless
I still feel terror of knowing they come

As the long night without stars pass
The moon out like dead rock— the last

Winter Knight Minichu

Her chill as a coat of arms;

Slow Wings
...Within my true macadam
tethered reins roll—
A ragged seam play
On cords unmade.

My pins, rehashed

In its youth's mask.
Pinions dark within
