sweet duration of day’s

last rays of light

induced enhancement

eyes that drink in greenhouses

“further and further” he said

waving an odd ballot

to the embarrassment

of his constituency

illusion in the being of day

impossible dreams flood

the heartbreaking scene

with words like wind and woe

there is an old tree

standing tall

in the fall of years

there are all kinds

of no more

flooding the gates

of existence
