I watch a candle
warm itself
on my wall
I want that passion
in
the yellow haze
Sharon Ferrante
I always
tell the truth—
it was me
who threw Jupiter
her
little moons
Sharon Ferrante
I wonder
if I leave my cloak
in your cold forest
will it take away
your
shiver?

the hypochondriac
senses demise
in a single sneeze
that
could wake the dead

hiding the wrinkles
in
my confidence

surely the whole office hears

only after
you switch the light off
in the hall
and the last plane of the night
descends,
can I fall asleep

Empty
birch branches
stand bent, gaunt in bitter cold
Sheets of
ice clinging.
