Window to Me


Thinking up new words, peeling strips
of birch from the trunk.  Maypole
in the woods, ribbons made of
nature.  I will turn to butter if I
spin. I am gladly aware that there is 
neither late nor early. Still, I am
running round the tree, looking 
for the entrance into us.  I hop, gallop 
and walk, adjusting my stride 
for resonance, listening for the 
matching hum of destiny.  You and
I are somewhere in the mystery, captured 
for the moment, and held in staggered 
dimensions. Sleuth of invisible time.
Such is my clever way to humor Fate.  I am 
only pretending to look for you. I want 
to have a story to tell, something to 
make you laugh when you arrive.  The 
synchronicity appears with neither lag
nor hurry.  Here we go round and round.
