he could not sing

nor
was he
a dancer

but to show his heart

he took her
out
on a sunny day

to stand
beneath the sky

a handful of paper
mere confetti
he threw

to tumble
and turn

twist

in the sun

under
the sky

cast adrift?

fallen behind?

the movement
of the sky
will not tell me

only …
I can watch

my head craned
back

to see
who
will regain

who
perchance
may falter
