“deep breaths,” I remind myself
even though shallow breathing
is easier for my lungs to handle
I’ve learned
the trick is to inhale
through the pain
& to avoid gasping
then slowly the ribs untie
and the air begins to move again.

let’s live close to the sky
in a little cabin
lit by the moon
and forget the sound of sirens
and angry voices
where we’ll create
new constellations
full of falling stars
and keep
a vase of mountain daisies
by our bed.

Eye's skies over gulfs light slips ozone sand
starts/stops heavy minded ice wafer-thin
figures faces, snow's slight hand
how like his son
he is

Keep calm
your ship has
not broken yet
are you
singing high
to howling winds
are you screaming
poetry into
the dark
are you life
that shall
not sink away
