"Beyond Balance"

the Uxmal dwarf piled


one block on top of another up and up vertiginously up

and standing on the top tip toe

painted his fingernail silver

trimmed it thin

and tossed it up into the black sky



Luz my neighbor painted her house

with shards beads broken glass

palm fronds udjat star and wave

I see them on her wall when I walk my dog

sometimes at night I walk myself

and fly through her wall to the moon
