DECONSTRUCTION

I.
Beads of sweat
glide across
sinewy calves
balancing on
mossy wood-boards

II.
Brown wrinkled hands
rest on a
black bench
beneath the
brilliant sunset

III.
A happy cloud of
silence
hangs above the
two
sitting on the
earthen bench

IV.
Defining marks of
charcoal
adorning
cracked yellow walls

V.
Scraps of paper
in a
pretty wicker basket
posing as
waste

VI.
Leaping orange-blue flames
tickle a
cold, blackened bottom
