Sault

Steady my uncertain circulation
O aimless carrier of respiration
Jewels on a lash, all exists in reserve
Parallel paths yield a parallel curve

The hiss of a smoke cherry sizzled in snow
Is a stale tone to break every quake in the rose
Tear-water tea & speaker-sighed prose
A howl of furnace breath to curl the toes

Pick me up & brush me off
Splinter, cluster, & vapor
Stung by the pace of constancy loss
In glint, in dust, on paper
