finding myself


here of all places
among these other found things: 
pocket fluff
poems 
bits of kite string. 

holding myself 
loosely, like that shifting moon, 
knowing i’m 
waning, 
will disappear soon. 

wilding myself 
with barefoot heart, wander-
and-waiting 
in fits 
and starts.          and stars.
