Sky Drippings

Dropped from the sky, a lover with forbidden tendencies

As injustice reigns like red acid sun drops

ripping a fiery burn through an open dark grey umbrella,

as a face underneath peaks out…

the rain clouds give way to old memories of a girl’s childhood

Brooklyn Day

dentists with free toothbrushes

and mom.

Smiles grow into fears grow into pain into sores into death

into traveling into moving away into eyes averting when tears bleed

but - when its time to move back into life and walk, walk , walk

like a newborn baby learning, stumbling, crying, starting,

a young girl turns into a woman

her white feathered wings extend, flap, flutter, open, gather wind

swirl like a tornado, and dust soars.
