Collapse of the Red-Orange Sundress (Poem)

Collapse of the Red-Orange Sundress

A mere fraction or fractal
Of red-orange time
Slides downward.
Precision etched and threaded
Between you and I
Watching, anticipating
Waiting for one more slip
And an alteration
Of this frilled adornment
That falls away to the undressed night.

  1. This is a beautiful, concise poem, that I enjoyed unravelling. You depict a glorious ending, to perhaps what was a picturesque beginning, especially at the dawn of time!

    Take wonderful and gentle care. Thank you. Love love, Andrew. Bye.
