Ruth Esther Gilmore - an eagle’s imaginings

an eagle’s imaginings


the hum of the world
serves as the backdrop
for leisurely dreams       

truths in polished bowls
frame the upper crust     
examine my realms       

society’s glue
evolves on the eve
of tomorrow’s seams       

through the slanted boards
sunbeams cast their light
on puppeteer’s means       

alluring landscapes
guide me through the night     
bewitching my star-warmed dreams
