Ode to Black

Ode to Black
A cave’s mouth
Swirling bats
Stream smoothed stone
Raven.
Onyx.
Dog’s nose.
Chimney swifts spinning into the smoke stack.
Sea shell
Vinyl record
Piano’s sharps and flats
Burnt candle wick
Horse’s mane caught in the wind as he leaves
Lightening scarred tree
The shirt you gave me
Hollow heart
