Back-Stitching
Back-stitch ten birthdates
on a different day
not wedding anniversary
or Christmas
running on a winding trail through the
elm, maple and oak trees
a race not through life
as pink bands across the sky
descend
into
the pan of rocks left by a wood sprite.

Black Hole of Memory
Tension released
fatigued from breathing
fatigued from living
fatigued from thinking
dog tags donned with blue and purple ribbons in hand
a tiny smile
surrounded by Nirvana
lying upon satin midnight blue
black roses ceiling spectrum
voices below in cold cement
never disappear faint
black hole of memory.
