Some lines, anyway.
A Small Dark Bird
feet like a pair of gloves wrinkled by
wear, wrapped taught around brittle
bird bones.
Plm & Grv
trees once saplings are now old,
spread their branches out across the sidewalk and the street,
roots burrow in southern sync
wrinkled brick sidewalk, gentle vermilion waves.
(disjointed bricks that will trip yo ass up if you aren't careful...)
Alley
Water streams behind buildings
gives life to cold granite paved ground,
Isolated pools mention the past like dimwit oracles
seeing only the sky above.
Yellow orbs of reflected light brought down from
street lamps sparkle stupidly in
the dimples of every pockmarked
cobblestone, hemming the magic
mirrors on the alley floor.

Have a good day :)
