A sodium lamp
Sweating its bile-infused glow
Bared the moth in me.
It rains in my head
Droplets so black they’re purple –
All my dreams are bruised.
Why are you crying
Only when the door closes –
Night absorbs your smile.
Evening in the Haiku (1)
Night-themed verses
Black is the night sky
Inviting sleep but whispering
Too softly for me.
