two old friends

winter and summer seldom meet
but when they do
they argue terribly.

when I am with one
I find myself being autumn
and when with the other
I am spring.

sight

holding a butterfly
in my hands
I peek in from one side,
while letting light in from the other;
and the more I see
the freer it becomes.
