Threshold Poems
Clouds swept over the city like discarded bandages.
"I have the will to remain immature forever,"
so said the Japanese Butoh dancer,
immersed in the solitude of knowing each touch is half
of a larger touch no one can reach.
Rain came, and with it, puddles, and with them, reflections.
An upside-down child caught leaping under his own leaping figure
vanished with a splash and was free.
