the art holds the chaos

autumn

it’s just past midday.
the adieu
in a milieu
of hues
linger in the orange.
the seas
of leaves
sit still
on the edges
of the branches.
there is a luminescence.
in the absence.
of the stress
to stay.
and it is so beautiful.

shake

i will stand miles away.
watching the shake
as it comes.
watching the break
as it falls.
watching the less
become more.
and still never
be ready for it.

sunsets

I’ve been taking more pictures of sunsets.
I suppose
As a reminder
that endings can be beautiful too.
And come again.

storms (a collaboration)
Had the opportunity to do another collaboration with the wondrous Nandita (in italics). Always thrilled and humbled to share my words with her.
there was a recklessness
to the blow
of the wind.
a fierceness
to the sway
of the tress.
a harshness
to the pour
of the rain.
a way the night
lived in its own rebellion.
there was serenity albeit
in the darkness of the night
a grace
to the shying
of the moon
a wisdom in
the way the skies burst open
buckled hearts
to usher in
a gust of purified breath
to wash away the stains
from stubborn minds
