And May, with the mud puddles,
and dragon heads near surface, dipping
into slop mirrors, dancing with mouths,
from teal and taffeta slim beasts
ripe for spring and ballet coarse
jaunt of too many limbs,
and watching them dart over,
impossible to catch, like spritely neon
meteorites destined
for a life force
hidden within a folded doorway
amongst trees, and lake,
and path -
some mistakable place
my eyes, too human, miss.

As you usually do, you baffle me with these words. The first six lines I find incomprehensible but the remaining nine are really quite lovely. You are a Rubik's cube poet for me.

Good to see you back again on here.

A pleasure to drown once more in your words.

I was thinking of you only this past Thursday.
