you saunter out
of my depressive mind,
deformed idea
muddled in nest of cobwebs
your claws growing
from seed, searching
for warmth
or for shaft of light
I hide you from
sunshine and moon-
eyes of strangers
how could anyone
assemble you like I do
you, tarnished with flaws
of all my failed designs
yet beholding you,
i collect
every exhale
of red-veined maple leaf
every scar
of rippling river tide
every wings
of promising butterflies
every verse
unsaddled by violent wind
falling
