February
CL Rawlins

In the mountain cove,
under the lee of a cupped ridge,
under limestone fingers
looming against the backlight.
From this ocean trench of winter,
the sun describes a low arc,
rises and sets two hours apart;
the shadowed air
is cold, clear and still.

Facing profound quiet, each thought
drifts separate with tattered edges,
an owl's shadow.
The last-fallen leaves of maple,
scattered like love's glances
on the blankness of snow and days,
keep a vivid, faint scarlet
in their folds.

Her eyes were impenetrable green
like shadowed ivy. I remember.
The snow remembers.

(Whitehorse Villiage)

Want To Breathe

you in I'm not talking about
perfume or even the sweet o-

dour of your skin but of the
air itself I want to share

your air inhaling what you
exhale I'd like to be that

close two of us breathing
each other as one as that.


~James Laughlin, American b.1914
