Lights flicker through the window

moonbeam and sunrays

take intermittent shifts

I observe              in stillness

Venus plays another number

bodily sensations

summertime phantom

breastmilk retracted

tear ducts ascending a

widowed sky

deep earth womb

pregnant with life, alone

stasis

                                        dissolving
