the wine aflame flooding the ragged hollow of my heart my eyes singed
by allegraosati | | poems
a frivolous handful of November bread a tree grows in my brain this town gets smaller every day
by allegraosati | | poems
leaves of grass untouched held by winter’s grasp suspended only in memory of sunlight the clouds have other chores battering a hardy world with fragile flakes
by allegraosati | | poems
how mushrooms shrink in the pan their putrid earth staining as fingertips nurture their bed
by allegraosati | | poems
writhing in a moment of memory torrential rain can’t disguise my grin
by allegraosati | | poems
they pant, the birds trudging on ragged wing the sultry, trembling earth pours its soul into a plunging cup
