          Lover's Axiom

Axions could be lurking all around us

freshly formed in the sun

could even be streaking through us

between lies that will be truths
 

Axions have extremely low mass

they are like love

less than a millionth of an electron

difficult to detect

     Tea for One

On the counter

cold tea awaits drinking

on the table empty cup

the warmed coaster knows stories

secrets kept
