DESIRE

orb of the morning

orb of the kitchen

orb of the prairie, the wetland 

orb of the feast, the party

the fast passing landscapes

the lushest, the most barren zones

edge or beyond edge

is it a deep still lagoon

reflecting the bluff and 

teeming with life

or a flame trying to catch

crumpled coupons 

orb of all colors

the beautiful 

ones
