(in a corner)

V.

                   There is a corner of my vision
                          Where the window blows sunlight
                         On the synthetic hairs of my lykafur coat.
    
                                                     The sun’s contact is a shimmer that’s
           Meek like shy smiles, (barely there)
 Sweet the way a smile
         Tastes sweet before it happens
                          Tastes like puckered lips, 
              Watering mouth, whistling (and all these words)
              Interrupted by a smile. (stretched to touch the junction)
      In a corner of my vision,
   The glimmer could be (scattered and still)
                    A fine coat of dust (more than half hollow)
                   Glinting shyly (looking back)
                     From a glossy net (missed the nexus)
                         From empty floss-like netting.
                                                                                              (I think I’m here)
                  A still breeze of sunlight from the window
                                             The accumulating dust
                                                           Causes the delicate architecture to wink
                                           The arachnid knitting to breathe.



(It could be,

There in a corner of my vision.)
