Beaded Doorways



sphagnum moss drifts randomly

from oaks reflecting

caressing raw extrusions

drawing off covert emotions

spent in self-indulgent bouts

gossamer strands soon saturated

dropped to warp the weave

of other carpet laying fools

spending cheap emerging passion

for those who walk barefoot

heedless of the cost of cushion

the price of protection

or the synapse laden threads

throughout matted enveloping armors

drawing heat from waning twilight

unable to spark through static

or other means the charge that

brings the muse to consciousness

and keeps the dream alive
