vals for winter butterflies

they don’t move ⋅ winter have them by their wings ⋅ but they know their steps ⋅ not a single one is wasted ⋅ have their wings ⋅ can’t have them ⋅ impossible to catch ⋅ so winter

sounds they make when nobody is listening:

dreams the forest ⋅ five trees later ⋅ vals for winter butterflies ⋅ un-dance above the tree line ⋅ the ballad of empty cloud
