-The peddles turn furiously, sweat forms and falls. The spokes broke long ago.

-In the absence of light reflections fade. Only breath is left.

Laughter echoes   as summer ends The melody    we forever chase

-It takes time but time dissipates   It always takes    longer than imagined

Like silk woven around  chambers of the heartIt is so easily torn

Shivering like burdened unhealed skin The fragile angel.

Everything ruptures  like over-ripened summer.It is our fall.

A path of footprints   salt water crashes, heavy– nothing remains

Smoke swirls at dusk   steps ascending to somewhere– Darkness envelops

The six hundred thread   sheets, purchased for our wedding made great ghosts in Fall
