Just for a moment
A poem about the total solar eclipse
Etching its way across the sky
Comes the moon
Landing right
In front of its
Polar opposite the
Sun
Eclipsing daylight for a moment

To Speak of Secret Futures
Our coffees cool between us on the breakfast counter. You stare at the curls of steam so you don't have to look at me. That's always been your tell. Usually your gaze speaks volumes, so when you refuse to meet my eye, that means you have a secret you don't want to say.
