Currency

I took your gifts
at the dawning

Enough to fill
an innocent

Freely
just to be

But the gifts you never told
were only on loan

A love freezer burned
Currency, laundered

Spin

Slanted,
your view
isn't the only spin

Trying to make me spin
around
and around again
to your view

The path you've hewn
in a straight line
upward

I'm not sorry
for my angle
shifting
away

Catching In the Know

Catching myself in the know

Intercepting
the confusion
of my limbo

How to show
if what I know
holds

Or becomes
merely a dark cloud
hovering

Where hopes
aren't supposed to die
