My fortifications that stand here today are something I will always hold and cherish
they stand up and fortify like the veins that make up a leaf, the veins that hold onto the margins and edges and insides.
behind I will always stand, but indubitably there will always be a tall man behind my enforced walls that hurdles me into breaking leafs
Breaking leafs that suffice the man as his visage shows relief due to integrating anger into others.
Broken leafs turn into mush that goes into the ground so let me be a breaking leaf before I turn into a broken leaf.

His Haibun
He does not like poetry; I write it anyway and do not tell him. It's true his face is not a poet's face. It is round and open, youthful; too apt to be compared to the sun. His nose is neat. It is impossible to imagine him smoking a cigarette, terse, full of cheekbones and tension. His warmth burns my fingertips. I am here for his fascinating body, the haphazard freckles I touch one by one; he is here for my eyes, just my eyes. A sunbeam sneaks through the curtains and pierces us both, sizzling the spices of his skin. I inhale and wrap myself in him. He kisses my eyes.

The Great Uncoupling of 2229
“I realize there are still aspects of humanity that my kind cannot understand or appreciate….” The soft, airy voice resonating from the orb that trailed Teyhx through the hallway of her dorm pleaded with her to see reason. Though, ultimately, the decision was not hers anyways.
