Tasha Klein
Snowed in at O'Hare
I pull the wires that spin snowflakes
in the half-light of your round table eyes.
On them a flower breathes
its breath song.
Oh, unroll the linen star chart,
pull the sky down to touch it too;
the language of velvet & night
fills all space around us.
And we spin, spin, spin!
Faces bursting through hair only for flashes,
sculpturing our features together.
Far across the ocean
dusk falls behind gargoyles
waiting on a roof above the square.
