Fragments of midnight (Day 1096)

Slowly   you resolve 
a soft blanket   satin 
edges   turning 

inside out   small 
children collect fragments
of midnight   shells of stars 

strewn like hail   you 
fall away   little by little   
a tree past its prime   

splashing   ruby red
leaves   onto
the crumpled sidewalk
