the sparrows outside

the sparrows outside
my window are forever
collecting fallen

twigs and leaves to build a home –
city dwellers, on the move

a third-floor window

a third-floor window
off of prince street in soho
on any given

night will reflect nameless balls of
gases, orbiting for some shine

there are mornings

there are mornings
when i insist
that you hear
the wind crashing
through autumn
leaves like there is
an ocean at our
window, that we can
hear with
the same ears

from a distance, we

from a distance, we
infringe on each other’s freedoms,
not knowing any

better, or knowing better and
leaving a window open

there’s always a bit

there’s always a bit
of obligatory dancing
in front of
windows –
the purple heart
tangoes with
the tomato
plant as the
strait-laced
scallion looks on

every morning, our

every morning, our
English ivy tries to climb out
the window, aiming

for eternity, the way my
heart is freshly bound for home

** in the absence of The Daily Post from WordPress, here’s your daily prompt: bound

saturday, you were

saturday, you were
out of this world and into
the next one – every

door ached, window wept, chimney sighed,
we held on so we wouldn’t slip

on the curb, outside

on the curb, outside
of our window, an idling
truck, predawn, weaving

its big, noisy, trucky dreams
into our great brooklyn ones

between two mournful

between two mournful
pieces of art hanging on
the fifth floor, a way

out – hope, a window of light,
waiting for me to raise the shades

recognizing only a splinter

recognizing only a splinter
of a fragment of how
the observable
universe works, i am stuck
wondering if somewhere,
in the constellation
hydra
, someone has
looked out her window
for the last time, a witness
to the collision, ouroboros
