Observations, poetry, silence. Breaking, rewiring, feeling, raging, smiling, musing, missing. Satisfaction, indignation, affirmation, consternation, web pollution. All that and just a little bit of me.

Six Winter Moments
1. Winter Bloom
The loud underbelly of a plane
touches my face
as a blossom blooms next to me
---------------------------------------------------------
2. Gruyères
Yearning for meaning in the winter's passing
comes alive like a thousand candles
when the sadness of the chateau is reflected in the light
----------------------------------------------------------
3. Morning Prayer
One by one, all doors are shut
as the fish looks out the window
and remembers the summer lagoon
------------------------------------------------------------
4. An Evening Unspent Working
How will the hawk afford the price of tears
for the satisfaction of the meal
when the pray sacrifices itself?
--------------------------------------------------------------
5. Rewrites
in the planes of wilderness the old man fades
as the child duty-bound
is raking coals of unrepentant summers past
---------------------------------------------------------------
6. Bulle
an island in the middle of the river
reflects the winter stillness
just for the only moment I saw it
