50PoWriMo - XLIX

breathing / dreaming



       as certain as the winter sun casts
     long shadows in the late afternoon
       as sure as darkness follows
      i'm forever drawing closer to you
breathing deeper than a daydreamer
   you're playing me like an instrument
      not my tune but ours
      the subtle intricacy of duophonic harmony
     only definable in terms of itself
      one iterative vortex
 dreaming of reality




with slightly oblique thanks, once again, to the lovely @Heilewelt

50PoWriMo - XLVIII

allegory



there was a little anchovy
sat on a pizza pie
although he'd love to branch off, he
could neither walk nor fly
nor could he find the words to say
nor could he catch my eye
thus couldn't persuade me to stay
his execution date
he couldn't solve his worries
he was inanimate
and half covered with melted cheese
met his delicious fate
