By William Carlos Williams
The moth under the eaves
with wings like
the bark of a tree, lies
symmetrically still—
And love is a curious
soft-winged thing
unmoving under the eaves
when the leaves fall.

Ph.D. in Comparative Literature, believe it or not. Occasional game dev. SFWA Associate. See website for bylines/portfolio. Yes, this is actually my name.
