a broken circle
in the zen garden
sparrow prints
soft snow
the imprint of wings
a memory
I hear
your voice in silences
and birdsong . . .
the wind-strummed trees
still sing to me of you
the spaces
in which our hearts dwell
are sacred
palimpsests of those
we have loved before
within us
the light of stars . . .
why is it
we so often
choose not to shine?

I unfold my origami self / and swim into a lake of fire / washing my hair in ashes / the crane-legged words / of a thousand burning poems.
