here is a poem for the prompt “curio”

“From One Curio To Another”

from one curio
to another :

words
more words

actions
reactions

a mantra: this is what i feel, now.
this is what
i feel, now.

this
is what i feel

now

crabs burrow in the afternoon
dying light
then darkness
the old new moon
the pull, the push,
receding not retreating

waves keep coming. i’ll jump goodbye

no more words
no actions
we fade: this is what i feel
now. this

is what

i feel, now.
