These mossy blocks of brick,
thorn veils of antique wells,
this beauty on her knees gulping seed

all fill with light aged
rays building vaults in space
landing on pennies and rain
punching a steam umbrella.

These corkscrew vines and ivy haze,
mold platforms and fungal foundations,
fingers following the lightning
to an echo's panting basement,

are refracted in a maze of eager blood
a chained lung breathing.
