collar

∴ sky-treader ronin
exhaling cloud-song
low thunder through misted hills—
didgeridoo drones
undertones swelling, liquefescent
earthen bellows beneath—
bare feet warmed
flares of midnight suns
talks to strangers
shows up alone / a lone—
specter bear, nimbus paws
unraveling right from truth
summoning raven—
collared by new moon’s pull
under yukimi-roof
snow-thaw prints left behind ∴
