a little quiet time alone

with the news & the undulations
of night air & early spring
a mercurial trickery of breezes
that labor & laughing fill out

a little quiet time alone

with the taste of distance
& perpetuity reduced
within climbing crystalline architectural lace
shaping & caressing

a little quiet time alone...
