Dark Night

Feeling comforted

By the sharp silver grasped close,

Finally able to sleep.

In the Eagle’s Lair

Sparrow year by year

Works to build a better world.

One day she just stops.

Mors, Mortis

When she tried it last

And asked for mom to visit,

Three long years went by.

Therapy

He told her that it’s

Like death when it happens.

She’d like to scream, can’t.

Unknown

Alone in her room

Determining the question:

Will she reach fifty?

Black Box

Wondering whether

And how and when and with what –

It doesn’t matter.

Not the Kingdom I

They also serve who

Work for peace, are forgotten

Since they do not kill.

Not the Kingdom II

Not that it matters

To you or anyone else,

But she served for years.

Not the Kingdom III

World without wisdom:

A dove bombed in shock and awe.

Feather floats away.
