emerge.

from a fallen
a wintry
hushed and sudden

a light
momentary

fullness.

begin now.

before you lose breath.
before autumn sinks into the western horizon.
before your tea kettle whistles
and the city is bustling with

the rush of tomorrow.

begin. now.

this tender
soft-footed

flailing in the wind
becoming.
