Poem #1

I put away my clothes

and return to you Dripping.

Salt Faced lies

the pavement slimes with crystals.

When he looks up at me

Time slurps to a halt.

Tabitha, he said, came to his world

UNWED

The Way unknown to her. Free

to her.

There is nothing left now,

but how time eats

all that wants to be

secret.
