crane flies

dancing through their lives
nine lost on the kitchen wall
spindly creatures having fun

never eating only
living to mate for one
season like our 60s
they float inside summer

settling briefly on wild
foliage all over the place
for the moment
like these past decades

knowing winter always
gestates their efforts

knowing spring always
hatches another cycle
