Rivalry


I
slept in
awakening
to soft sunshine,
silence.

I
stretched
moving dreams
from deep in
muscles.

Your
words linger
still, haloed loosely
around ears,


a touch of gold,
a slight of hand,


that
rivals Midas,
for every pound
he’s worth.

This was also just translated into Portuguese and published in an email distributed fashion to 1700 people around the world. It is called Art in 8 Seconds.
