weather system
We
watched as the sky turned
light grey to deep, menacing blue
that took over in stages, jaggedly
breaking the peace above the lone mountain
we could see from the balcony.
the rolling thunder sent shivers
to raise the hair along my arms
as the lightning cracked the solid sky
into pieces, a puzzle already solved,
but the parts still visible within the whole.
all had passed upon waking, leaving
every tiny bud intact on the
blooming trees covering the landscape.

Caught: a live one
Light
and easily thrown,
no hint
of strain - like
I am
just a feather,
that
seems to make your
blood
move quicker.
The
sweetness is
something
you put on,
a thin
layer of thoughtfulness that
melts
when it touches my mouth.
I ask
you to paint it thicker,
and
whether this is an affect,
how you
handle me like
a doll,
not a full-grown woman?
