glass shadow breaks

in rays, suspended

black shards

cast. . . looming. . . mesmerize

dismiss the fray

to dissipate

upon the night, as it subsides.


( serpent syndrome. . . )

amid pretending

the gagging sound

is not my own / can not be mine

a will-full child

stubborn, unmentioned

enumerating. . .

how parts collide.


( coalesce. . . )

this death skull-cap

explodes within

no sweet surrender

& finely guarded, no resign

dusk wraps itself around still windows

to coil in solemn discipline

strong winds, no wings for Palestine.

no sweet surrender

to coil in solemn discipline

strong winds, no wings for Palestine.
