touches me in its passage
leaving so little

as cold faces stream past
skim milk tonight

By the Hearth

he sits by the hearth
when mornings are chilly
hunger shall scold him

“The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold, therefore shall he beg in harvest and have nothing.” Proverbs 20:4

Envy

crow eyes the cat’s catch
clacks his beak hungrily
envy eats its own heart

Moments

moments at a time
days trickle past — raindrops
slipping down the pane

Whose voice

whose voice tells the leaves
it’s time to let go?
whose voice will I hear?

Truth Arrives

truth arrives first
in willing hands and feet
then on the tongue

Divine Radiation

divine radiation
a gleam of heaven’s light
battling sin’s cancer
