Flying Fish


a fin

again

a gin
for drinking in

the milk forest ~
a, the letter
and in stella maris swim, aba
the meter
theon:  Leonids and

Perseids sew bb
between them,
aba
clothing October

sky in Orionids

falling bodies in terza rima  [1]
spark fab

rics
in the making
who wouldn't want
a seat feasting at such a ta(b)le

a ta(b)le with a
b tail

I propose
a toast: let us
celebrate the
wet wing

shedding
like a she'll




[1] Terza rima is the rhyme scheme for Dante’s Divine Comedy
