ideally

in the sense that the snow
in an unbroken layer
covers everything

as kettle boiled down to
a coat of char and salt
that will not scrape

the residuum
of a vacuumed
continuum

as in wham
as in bam
as in yes,
ma'am

this beautiful surface
i could study
for a lifetime

* * *

the villian of my story
eats egg sandwiches with cheese,
chicken, unhatched, and olives


* * *

starlight burned out
streetlight that turns on
just as i approach

* * *

the unwritten
unspoken word
i know what it is.
