a breeze begun 
you can see right through 
but later it grows teeth 
takes roof 
and one day legend 
how the hurricane took off 
piano's pounding somewhere 
tells this world 
you've smoked too much 
was ash once in a pile 
but now a whisper through seraglio 
rose scent 
and apple tea 
a Bosphorizing breeze 
slows to a single leaf twirl 
then a breath of autumn's being 
bring on fiercest maenads 
for the jolly romp outdoors 
whole forest of a tune 
a classical disunity 
everyone's joined in 
then it's under the blood 
it holds hearts high 
a toybox breeze 
and virus burnt 
the strings and brass accompany
works in a spanner 
to loosen your hinges 
it's under the door 
tickles the sausage dog 
rattles paint 
from window frames 
cleaves chasm 
trumpets prophecy 
comes to this last corner again
won't remember a thing 
it won't matter how mellow your mist 
who gives stillness a second thought 
if there's a breeze begun?
