DIA

Grinding throb as heart cycles,
               pulling  ,   pushing  ,    dropping    ,    returning
               and, as it weaves liquid rhythm:
                                chest rise  ,   catches sinew   ,   recedes.


These two, heart and breath,  idle at the stoplight.
Green light lingers on the mind.   And the host of stimuli
           beckon:      find,        remember,        chew,        doze,
                               hold,       release,             follow,      forget.
