fly

fly in the web

I back away

from him

 

 

 

moon

 

the moon fades

into my nightmare…

damp pillow

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

news

 

news of her death

the fear

of hearing it

 

 

 

 

 

 

heat

heat lightning

now I know

you won’t

 

 

 

 

hard

 

hard frost

the chill of his grip

 on my wrist

 

 

 

first

first day at school

a row of faces shine

in new shoes

the sound of each second

all the things

I can’t control ………….

nightfall

I drift back in
