A View


pools of light puddle, collect

on banks, on bars, the business district 

in grounded constellation, to gaze down 

for lode star, to see signs never fixed


always fixing, aquarius laying 

out words for us on soft knit 

we nest, backlit 

who sees us settle 


behind paned storm glass, a veil

threats to tear, or so we seam

  1. I was getting nervous as I was reading....thinking you weren't going to follow the prompt and use a word....but loving the content...and then I got to the end and smiled. LOVE the "seam"/seem here! Nicely done!

  2. Thanks! I knew I wanted to get to that line, but wasn't sure how I was going to get there.
