if Witches mis-spell

and Muses

don’t rite…

if curtains can’t draw

would darkness alight?

♠

if hearts fail to sing,

would eyes

skip their dance…

would lyrical voices

be silenced by chance?

♣

if wind stopped caress

and chatting brooks

muted…

would forks in the road

turn to knives as they routed?

♥

if sunnier

outlooks

are closer than skin…

then radiance true

← looks out →
