of words
let me read it to you…

a glimmer of words
fireflies flickering
flying above reach
against a night sky
competing with stars
and a passing satellite
aimless dance of words
they are here
no, there
to hold them in a jar
is to keep them captive
frightened, running
circles for an exit
secret stash of words, shuffling
around in a drawer
among misfit keys
odds of matchbooks
ends of inkpens, loose
with potential
drops of words, dripping
from a bank of stormclouds
communing in a stream
channel through a mill
briefly suspended, until
caught in a pond
of poems
