window seat
2003
towards autumn end at nightfall take-off time
the plane ascending in clouds heavy below, and above
piercing through, the flow between heaven and earth all
in two small eyes
hands forming a shield against the cabin's dimmed lights
the sight is tied
moon lit clouds cast dark
on red leaves dancing below
the same reflexion
top lights
trays working their way up the aisle
behind closed eyes
these words still dancing on the mind
bent out again
