the photo above sink
swaying right-left hazel
eyes
a luck of
recognition
black on crimson
dry down colors
houses shrug indifferent
roofs
in each zodiac
a sign of icy
cuts
under pressed thread stroke
huddled warm town
debating
frigid drab fog
swooping
the city
Note: Cherita (pronounced CHAIR-rita) is a linked poetry form of one-, two-, and three-line stanzas.
