Be the change you wish to see in the world.


Why is the warmest dusk

when no one is looking

past the fogged glass,

where snow falls

and glitters like lost jewelry?

Does the sky melt into peach candle wax

and lemon tea froth

because we think we’ve got our own,

in the comfort of our home?

Those banks of snow

over parking spaces

remind me something’s missing;

I cannot replace it with words,

paint, or songs.

When it returns, it’ll be right there.

under january’s indigo night sky.
