Saturday, May 12
mayflower, mayfly


oh brief aubade.
reflection cast on moving water
dip and dither. dance daintily,
dart from ripple to ripple.
hang and hover
in a graceful pirouette
of endless circles.

peal petals peel.
pare and shed that protective covering
unfurl your sails to catch the wind
in a cacophony of silence.

the air tenses
with droning turgidity
a flower propped up by a stiff stem
reeking of amaranthine tediousness.
the air quivers.
the entire universe moves
around the still pivot of a single flower
and a mayfly.

mayflies flit
across enduring purple skies of may
and then they are gone.
come, descend into oblivion.
swallowed by disappearing ripples...
you cannot cure the world of its lingering amnesia.
