Iridescent crow wings
scatter ice particles, patches of air clatter.
Grackle claws engrave the frozen creek,
small owls emerge from blanching shadows,
fieldmice burrow into snow drifts.
A small stir in the flappable; facets
dazzle a dazed daylight.
A newly unearthed sky pauses to blink
life stutters, shimmers back
twice as bright.

SPIKED SECRETS
wings in spiked red sauce
...flappable supper
...disemboweled coffer
under linen cloth
secrets away its latches
and old silk lining
feet pressed against chest
ill at ease...Harker’s knocking
knees..banging back wine
