I took to the window sill (Feb. 17, 2010)

I took to the window sill
ever a moment of silence ahead
curled in the generous
piece of red cloth
I crossed outdoors
without any signal
to this spot of thickly
fallen leaves
a difficult to reach safety
the sting of temptation waited
I shall go long from here
are you quite willing to
wander the morning until

I return.
