...I. Sighting

I saw you  
through refracted light-

Corner Boy

...Wonderous creations 
Flowing across nations 
Filled with positive vibrations 
That would lead down a path of negativity 

Once Intune with  one another 
Unified by a dream 
Each

Valentine

...Valentine’s straddling bikes, hiking it to the mall.
Youthful and carefree; passing trees in revelry 
as the sun plays peekaboo through its leaves.

which beckon my core
sans a resounding wave
or bawdy utterance

After changing clothes, she sat on the
sofa with a fizzy juice cocktail and her

in the gentlest manner
and it falls away 
in fleshy strips 
of bitter

Chakra One: Muladhara--Roots
