a stab in the light,
wings like fingertips
caught in midflight.
a flash of the sun,
scrotched by the moon
peter out poisons
that misspelled doom.
a knowing whisper,

flits its way through the crack
in the fog and in the night,
where shadows too take flight,

when whispers come to amplify your fright.

He whispered in my ear
Looking out
And sees the dark waves surging around him,
The sea-birds bathing, spreading their feathers,
Frost and snow falling mingled with hail. (2)
"What do you want," he asks.
To fall in love.
"I cannot do that."
She laughs and asks if this is a sample of heaven,
No end to the horizon and no end to the sky.
She wishes she could walk on the clouds, springing from one to the other.
And if it were possible, would she leave footprints in them?
