Updraft

a poppy blown
off the train platform—
one-way ticket

the stars never
really go away

over the phone
your voice breaks
on goodbye

shell shards left
behind at low tide

sound swells
from the French
horn section

a helicopter seed
caught in the updraft

the help I don’t

yellow poppy
breaks from its shell
what I’d forgotten
from last
night’s dream

 

Have you written your dream and/or fox poems yet?
