First Thaw
The icicles that barred our windows break
this afternoon, each shattering against
the porch. We emerge, survey the damage, bask
in the sun that’s crept back into our sky
minutes at a time, near unnoticed.

Mind, Spinning
Mind cards the day away,
his fingers spindling thread
while he stares at warp and weft
of picket fences, window panes.

First Sight
Baby, I could say
infinite. I could say asteroids, collision,
shattering. I’ve charted that path, too.
Satellite skimming your horizon. Fuck him.
