[Neuromancer]

neither truth
nor light
furls
to our
charm

[Neuromancer]

starlings are no lesser
birds
than
flickers

but opinions
are divided

[Kay Syrah]

ardent pursuit
sometimes requires
delay to the notion of
timely arrivals
when the storms
of pain ascendent
demand less sail
and the charm of
the idea
that beckons
must be dismayed
to wistful waiting
as belayed destinations
await the proper winds
to unfurl.

patience is progress
unremarked.
