A Solitary Consciousness

Snowflake… 
Deep winter 
Ex………...hale
Into thick night sleep
While autumn, intoxicate,
Dreams drunk
Dizzily bubbles with old fruit, long ferment
Veiled under frosty top, 
Poppity pop pop!

…Huzza! 

Faintly, two flakes, float and flutter
On east current Sibir born
Sleeping land, Tatar fire
Divinely hewn, it must be, 
Without duplicity 
They are, each other 
Mirror made, gentle 
Caress, each atom flicker
Old memory, form 
On cold corners
Oblivious miracle
Descend 

…Into havoc spaces  

Lightly hover 
Over f-bomb diphthongs
Tattooed knee-cap, death trap 
Nipple ring, two prongs
Bentleys for Ladas 
Stolich in the Pradas
Thumpin’ old school 
Molotov drop shots

…two flakes therein touch

on tongue tippity tip!
small child glees
ruddily radiant 
under broken 
symphonies 
consumes
inwardly 
miracle 
silence 
falls
in
to
u
