On balance, both nostrils flare when angered
like a bull seeing red—charging anchored.
It's a grand spectacle watching gold dust-rise.

Such is a crisis of heart when our wings-
is torn out like leafy green velvet twigs.
Snapped like a flower stem in the twilight;
dying poppies shadows me, quite finite…
