A GEOMETRY OF INNOCENCE



A saxophone carves
out space for lips,
eyes, and a curling
ease of make-believe;
monkeys take care
while grooming themselves
& those they love;
a train whistle
signals lost loves
& strangers in their midst.

Death
has more patience
than a cat
and waits
in shadows
& sunlight.

There are no
"last calls."

Norman Savage
