Maya Ellenson authors essays and art columns, but she also likes to write unorthodox and prose poetry.

Fountain's Cycles

Music of Breeze

Palms swaying

tuned into a breeze and music

of water spiral.

The eyeballs --

these little beads --

or rather minions of a boxy vision --

fall in the fountain's cosmic cycles

relaxed

this first day of Spring

the mind's eye

opens up

like a window

double-sealed for winter.

Dancing Trees

Discernment
