homesick.


the analysis is bowed

predisposed and weakened
the bough on which she perches
is pushed by the straight lines

her vantage dips and waivers
the mirage falters
and eventually fades

a flicker on a quiet
and still horizon

the subtle ache of
a deserting memory

the western cairn

  1. As usual, your use of words is absolutely unique. Did you mean "a" or "an" in the second to last stanza? I love your writing.
