see.

steel gray skies
round, full

cold wind, warm sun
pushing, pulling

sharp breath
draw in the cold air

turns into bright, open eyes
mouth open, surprise

the hope of new
in the darkening time

backwards.
can't deny the feeling in my chest

trying to read the sky
as if the clouds were tea leaves

predicting the path
that only god knows.

only god knows.
if there is such a thing.

so she said
you must let go

and let this wind take you, too
with your brothers, the leaves

up across the sky, through the alleys.
look.
