| Life Cycle by GJ Gillespie |
Shows through its artful eye
Unsung lusts for love long lost
A twist too tight, a smile too broad
A yearning for composure
Fleeting dreams and sentiments
Of sweepers stirring sand
Or sparrows falling silent
Like celebrants remember
Desperate incantations of ice and earth
And nod in reverent prayer
While somber silhouettes spill into darkness
and all is quiet as the air
in fields of rotten crops
