Carousel at Lighthouse Point

Another chance for naked
thought escapes into a threatening
sky before it tips 

into night. Nothing comes
of the gusts. What blows 

over wasn’t as transparent
as she wished. Dangling
power lines frighten her 

now as they did when
she ran all the way to the point
for a slow spin.

  1. I’ve just found your blog and have been browsing. I find your poems very enjoyable – often puzzling or teasing, but I’m sure you mean them to be that – and generally mysterious and haunting. I like them!
