Loose Ends
 
under the rain shaken free
from the maple's golden shade
from the torrent the day before before
how does it remain in its glistening drops
stay with me in dreamless days and
nights awakened by the sound and tremor
of a life this dazingly (madly)
unaware

The Last Fall
reach for me as the perfect petals
of the last flower does reaching 
for a failing sun
am I failing with it
and when does one question leave shadows
darker now encroaching devouring
every little thing
rhyme and reason still struggle
unannounced unseen unheard
yet the sky quakes from the silent roar
of her answering
outstretched
eyes
