Jaded Juncture

                    Eclipsing late August
                      sunsets,
               pinky-orange horizons
motion
south.

   Indifference mutes
the muse,
dulls
panache of pastel
wash.

        Unattended portal
   entangled,
slighted.


All Points

Circle of love encompasses-
be open and kind - forgiving
needle north, south west east.
