airplane in flight

above the clouds

it's so easy

to cross borders

when you have papers

quicksand…

extending a hand

from across the seas

amongst the folds

a cache

should I unpack

the emotions

or tighten the straps

fitful sea-breeze

snatches of sailors’ song

waft to my ears

a monarch kisses my brow

mistaking me for a flower

at the laundromat

I share my change

with a stranger

a wisp of ecru

hovers over the cradle . . .

the moon at midday
