This was an experiment with styles I tried while I was away. Let me know what you think.

Shoes left like a nocturnal promise beneath the patio, footsteps
like sighed breaths on ice-glossed pavements, air pierced with
blade-strung kisses but she's chasing firefly dreams tonight.

There are tentative trails ploughed through the cornfields.
When her mind starts wandering, her feet have to follow
down to the shoreline for the occasional lap of her reasoning.

Age-worn innocence scribed across her snow-weathered face.
Eyes turned to discern the fate written beyond the stars.
Obvious truths no more than sleet screening car windows.

The cynic bears a contradictory smile under the moonlight
like the devil shielding a halo from a molten destiny.
Sleep-talking has never been as obscure as her monologues.

"Dreamers are fools sleeping on their fire-sprung inspirations.
That's why I could never sleep with my eyes closed to reality.
I'll follow my yearnings to misplaced destinations until I'm home."

Inari, this is such a spectacular poem that I fear for it being poemnapped by a grunting nut! Shocked You best take it away somewhere and hide it!

It reminded me somewhat of Dylan Thomas' style (which I know will make you spectacularly happy). Gorgeous. I love the form, and I think it's got to be one of your best.
