The Moth Flew Into My Life
At the door knob
the moth appears pinned
and yet totally free
serene
honoring stillness
blended with the dusk
suspended in mid-tones
it pauses
until the street lights
hijack the town
looking paper-thin
compared to its sunlit
kaleidoscope of
solid and illusionary versions--
in this dimension of oxymorons--
my winged figurine steers me
to the unknown
as I open the door
in or out
