A shaft breaks through the half-closed blinds,
and suddenly the ordinary air becomes
a cathedral of suspended gold—
dust motes turning in their ancient waltz,

a drawer of mismatched spoons that taste
of someone else's mornings — chamomile,
the dim sweetness of a grandmother's tea.

smooth stones, a shell, the name written in foam
that dissolves before the eye can hold it.

and a single chopstick standing in the drawer
like the last surviving witness to a verdict.

and the mirror keeps a weather of old departures.

a shopping cart drifts there, wheel-deep and patient,
as if waiting for a country to remember its name.

of nothing I have promised anyone.

with their own hush of red light.
I walk among the leaves, each one a slow breath.

into blue, into green, into the memory

A wind of pale cumin lifts from the avenue,
umbrellas held like black shells against noon.
On the median, a dandelion opens its clock,
telling no one the hour, telling the bees.

threading the last of the marigold heat
through the ribs of the black oaks.
The ground is a parchment of brittle veins.

where the headland surrenders its clay.
Each wave is a sculptor with an infinite chisel,
shaving the cliff into the shape of a ghost.

Dust settles on the wooden shelf,
each mote a day that slipped through fingers,
and you do not brush it away—
not yet. You watch how light finds it,
time
