with endless points of arrival morning light

 

 

day tumbling into a happy idea

 

 

from the fringes of white ribbon a story

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

escaping into the subconscious real toads

 

 

input/output
the future dissolves
in a sentence

 

 

time lapse breathing in a sunset moment
