Hope for a girl

A permanence of movement
circles trying to fit  squares  
habits of disbelief
 next door
 to a fairytale
that stubbornly
refuses to leave


chase away  hope
before it stabs my  heart
before the morning pancakes
when you exit  with  the sun
I was ambushed by beauty at dusk
along with conspiring moonbeams

 in the furrows my frown
as  your trellis skirt 
floats over the mud
I find the poetry  I  lost
in the patterns of your blouse
a circle  of blue squares


2014
