In the middle of a restless night,

the moonlight crashing;

on, through, dissipating in –

the window’s pane, the glass,

into the moments of the past.

 

The wrestling of the body 

the mind writhing in attempts

to extricate and mount all memories

remaining of moments exposed

———-now displaced.

 

The etchings, now time worn

vaguely recollect life, some times

a lifetime, some times simply

brief breaths held so long

nothing remained but laughter.

 

In the night’s breeze, in its
debris

what remains tumbles about,

reminding etchings of origins

and whispering of a possibility

that has long been spent.
