chrysanthemum swayed shaking its head to my tears six feet above you

I rarely do but that day, when I had a second to breathe I looked up at the sky A squirrel scurried across the wire Against the blue, on top of the black, a tiny blob of moving gray
Knife in one hand. Blood on another. The puddle of red paint reflects my own eyes. Shaped like the waning moon. Something that made you swoon.
