Ljublijana evening

a half-sunset

split by the castle’s gates

the candle light

spent by the wind:

river café

seaside village:

dome’s bells turn on the lights

in each house

morning sky:

a couple of crows

and two paling stars

September morning:

between thuja’s branches

dewly spider’s webs

foggy morning:

veils of spider’s webs

slipping by the thuja

custom shop:

the backyard

full of pigeons

misted glass:

the tram takes away

the trace of my palm

last frontier:

holiday fragrance

unbearable

early morning-

sinking into my coffee

the daystar

flowing spider’s web

getting down from the ceiling-
late make-up

last hand wave-

the window swings

both ways

red geraniums

gush through old shutters-

end of summer

watching the rain-
underneath rush umbrellas
a few sea-gulls

a vine hawk moth

round the last bottle-

old sommelier

stony wall

furrowing the east mountain-

grapes fragrance

burnt vineyard

protected by stones,

the ancient vine trunk

sunset:

melting in twilight

rocks from the golf

lingering cold:

the inexpressible

windowed

night flight-

this side of the wing

a faint band of light

night train:

the light off frost

windowed

lingering frost:

anxiety

windowed

decomposing fog:
plane track or spindle-shaped cloud
wrinkling the sun

deserted neighbourhood:
the longest street ending with
the setting sun
