of paws
on parquet

at zazen

never-never land
the one-way
ticket

into the dark

lazy afternoon

asking for silk sheets

joker
in the envelope
with his will

for
neon

         a pack

fellatio
in a
nun's dictionary

eye contact
at the funeral parlour

daisies
where she used
to run

calling ghosts
at dusk

beating wings
for the one
left behind

a stone placed
              hearing our song
