Dark Matter

Lengthwise finer thing
and missive (underestimated)
lepton identity unworn
in gestured fields of charge,
these burden spoken days
and lift (so gently) all
our shields of unlit strength.

Massive weakness undefined
(despite elegance) may
not solve each point of
tempted void. Unfettered,
universe-litter underlines
the truth that must be told.

Radio Ladybug

Cottony cushion scale fear
preserves oranges and rice.
DDT entangles ecosystems
while lamplit groves exhale
and wait.
