lights come up to my ceiling
and latch onto it like some gargantuan lizard,
shrunken in size. It flickers, then strays
completely out of my optic,
erratic in hands of leaves&wind,
two great puppeteers,
these scales look animated.
they create a crevice
in the hollow and expanse of nothing
then melt easy as hails when strong rain comes.
spill to the ground, no form.
