Free Verse


normally,
what you abandon,
abandons you
like the dreams you let go
or sight of the splendor
in fir trees under snow
or the Ravel’s unearthly
Gaspard de la Nuit

but the eye contact
you hold on to
for a little too long
is a poisonous stinger
leaving you lost
about the proper way
to say goodbye

3. Eye contact is a dangerous thing.
