Torn Valentine (for the Mother of God)

Plans and projects
planes that perish
it turns out
even the sand
is interested in you
albeit superficially
showing up for
meetings and
cementing someone
else’s guilt at first
not long before
a choir of its own
springs up in air
or wave or flame
the word is in the
movement of the
form come to rest
temporarily upon
a thorn or thought
the color of ideas
torn when in
passing caught.
