A single snowflake
floats innocently down
Joining others
to form a snowball
Now of sufficient heft
perfect to smite others
Flake upon flake
snowdrifts amass
Their collective weight
an avalanche making
Engulfing justice
in a furious blaze of white
But a single branch
of self-interest
Left
poking through

As the
Smallness
Of the
Confines

Mind

Our precious words we lock away
Save them for a rainy day
Imprisoned in our minds they stay
Never to see the light of day
Anxiously they pine away
Falling into disarray
Ideas once bright dimly glow
If only we could let them go
Across blank paper freely flow
Till new dawn the rooster crows
Weaving tales of wondrous lore
Shaking readers to the core
Alas, not yet, it’s far too soon
Maybe come next blue moon

As much time

Breathtaking
