Tossed

An imagination spoken off the edge
of a penny selected amongst the coins
found in moonlight. Not for your pocket,
but thrown for the loss of passing seconds,
what jangles through like letters brought

to breath for someone you don' t know,
about a subject you're unfamiliar,
from a place that you've possibly been,
and come tomorrow, play out as if thoughts
forever carried by everyone never met,

for the sake of oddments kept to chance
worked with the personal given a singular name,
assignation known in nickname, a windowsill
from an old bedroom where day's grime
sloughed with nostalgic rain- brevity,

yesterday's siding in need of washing,
while now and then, openly from night sky
which the young always wish over with curfew
dreams, this mystery more tremendous
than I alone could ever want to handle.
