disembogue
the tangled limbs
of tree branches
fighting
for a glimpse
at the sky
the canopy is fraught
with struggle
in imperceptible motion

crimson wax
drips down
the perfumed envelope
of unexpounded
detritus
to pool around
the signet stamp
of disapproval
made with shaking hand

a prayer
a whisper
to disembogue the fettered
to unfettered laying out
the tendonflare
of truth untold
through scrabbling branches
affecting uncaring whimsy
in midst of struggle
