Lilac
Sunshine strikes, before
And after one
Photographs
Memories of pikes
And pickled persimmon
Poppies
Haze that raised
The shades of vermillion
Candles
Skies lit by the grace
Of readers defiled by Gideon
The words said no reminders
And you send none
To remind me
But I enjoy
Do I not
To think of you
Remember
You send me
Spaces to remind me
The words said
To burn
A sacrificial letter
I sent to you
The dust, it was
My super sacrificial gesture
